Saturday’s afternoon action is focused mainly on the foot of the table as the likes of Fulham, Hull, West Brom and Aston Villa all face crunchy fixtures. The quartet of three o’clock kick-offs will do their best to hold our attention, before our focus switches to Old Trafford as a desperate Norwich arrive to take on Ryan Giggs’ United.

It has to be said, Fantasy talent is at premium and perhaps limited to Christian Eriksen’s display at Stoke and Wilfried Bony’s quest for further goals at home to Villa. In the main, we’ll save our energies for the tea-time clash as we get to assess the impact of David Moyes’ departure and the “Giggs’ effect” on the Red Devils. With a double fixture looming in Gameweek 37, the Old Trafford teamsheet will be of keen interest, as will the performance from United’s key attacking assets.

Full details of the day’s starting lineups can be found via our Twitter feed, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom remains opens for those looking to indulge in some real-time banter.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

          Yeah, clean sheets are just such a hard way to get points it hurts more when they get lost at the last minute 🙂 Having them work out added time for every game would just be a big mess and nobody would be sure.

            Imagine this situation:

            Injury happens in minute 15, lasting until minute 18. Player X comes on in 18th minute and players until full time. Clearly he plays for 75 minutes (from minute 18 to 48 - 30 mins - and from minute 45 until full time - 45 mins), not 72 as you would have us believe.
