Dugout Discussion – Stoke vs Man United

Saturday’s events conclude at the bet365 as Manchester United bid to reclaim the Premier League top spot with a victory at Stoke City.

Jose Mourinho’s side are awash with major Fantasy talent as Romelu Lukuku heads into the match as the top captain pick for a fourth successive Gameweek.

Over 179,000 (37%) back the Belgian with the armband who is under pressure to deliver after goals from the next three most popular picks – Harry Kane, Alexandre Lacazette and Alvaro Morata – earlier in the day.

Paul Pogba also boasts a swell of support. Owned by 1.8 million (37.5%), he wears the armband for over 203,000 managers this evening.

Meanwhile, Henrikh Mkhitaryan goes into the game as the most signed midfielder ahead of Gameweek 4, having claimed another 236,000 owners.

With Ander Herrera recalled to the Man Utd starting XI, it could be that Pogba is shifted up behind Lukaku this evening, with Mkhitaryan starting wide on the right.

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

    At last, a captain choice that scores a goal!

    It's early days and I know mkhi doesn't get the assist, but anyone think he can break Henry's record?

      What's henrys record?

      1. InSaneMan-e
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 13 days ago

        20 assists I think

          De bruyne got 21 last season though?

    Best def not for Soton up to 5.5m to bring in? They all seem quite uninspiring:

    Monreal (Arsenal poor at the moment)
    Otamendi (risk of Pep madness)
    Jones
    Trippier (at risk from Aurier?)
    Jagielka (good fixtures after next week)
    Someone else?

    I don't get it? Very confused? New rules?

    1. Coaly
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      No assist, always the rule

    2. Jairzinho

      It was a rebound.

        I'm confused.

    Rashford so ego

  7. The Wizard of Ozil
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 13 days ago

    Lukaku scoring is actually dull for ff. 58% ownership. Cmooon

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      Not dull for my pointage

      1. The Wizard of Ozil
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 13 days ago

        I mean, I have him, it's just kind of obvious.

  8. Shultan

    So does the goal change the mind of all the lukaku out peple?
    Or are you still getting rid?

    Thank you Lukaku you absolute clown for wasting a beautiful Mkhi assist. Useless donkey player.

    1. THAT'S LIFE
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      lukaku went for pog over mick in his team

  11. Ser Bronn of The Blackwater

    No Mhki assist? What a troll

    1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      Kaku assured himself by rebounding his goal... but only can get Goal points

      1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 13 days ago

        assisted ^^

  12. Begbie.
    • 10 Years

    Does Rashford ever pass? Talented player but so greedy.

  13. My Name Is Pepu
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 13 days ago

    Bavies gets an assist for a similar instance but Mkhitariyan doesn't.. What a joke!

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      Lol, how's that same?

    2. VS10_
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      Haha, not even close to similar. (Don't own Davies)

    3. Cok3y5murf
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      There's a difference. Bavies struck it, goalkeeper saved, Eriksen scored.

      Here, Lukaku struck it, goalkeeper saved, Lukaku scored. Mkhi isn't involved.

    4. My Name Is Pepu

      Chill guys, I'm just another salty Mkhitariyan owner 🙂

      1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 13 days ago

        Like us Firmino and Salah owners

        1. My Name Is Pepu
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 13 days ago

          That's me as well 🙂

    Lukaku is nailed in my team to be honest, absolute class, my favourite to win golden boot. Love him.

    1. Teror
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      He'll finish runner up to Harrikane Katrina

  15. Teror
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 13 days ago

    Is Bavies worth the 0.2 extra outlay over Trippier?

    Sure, he got a goal on opening day but that won't happen often. Two assists is impressive, but Trippier still got one. What do you think?

    1. DR0GBA
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      Aurier rotation

  16. Jafooli
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 13 days ago

    *checks Marks team*

    assist will be given shortly.

    Kane Lukaku captain pairing continues to confound the critics

  18. Rainer
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 13 days ago

    Will we be able to go without Kane or Lukaku?

    1. Harry Ball Bag™⚽⚽…
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      eriksen for Kane but you will need lukaku

  19. RAFA THE GAFFA

    Class from Mhiki!! Real shame no assist! 🙁

    shocking weekend for me

  21. InSaneMan-e
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 13 days ago

    Taking lukakus ownership +captaincy percentage, is lukaku points a good thing if he's not captain?

    1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      Definitely a good thing

    2. Son is Rising
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 13 days ago

      If he scores less than your captain.

  22. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    • 11 Years

    Fully expecting no assist, but if we get an official (FPL) word can we get a hulk please?
