Man City v Man Utd team news: De Bruyne starts, Alvarez a sub

Issue with benching next week

Saka Son Maddison Bowen Barkley
Haaland Watkins Solanke

If I do bring in Solanke, I'll have to bench Palmer, for there is no way I'm benching Foden

58 points, not bad at all, got 22 on the bench too!

Haaland goal really did not score many total points because of his EO.

Who would have thought that Foden have more points than Haaland this far into the season... And Saka rocking almost 20 pts more !

Considering doing KDB back to Foden just so he stops d*cking me over

Morris a better option than Solanke?

Thoughts on this WC team?

Neto - Flekken
Gabriel - Doughty - Reguillon - Zabarnyi - Van de Ven
Saka - Son - Bowen - Bailey - Barkley
Watkins - Solanke - Morris

6 DGWers in 28
11 players in 29

Solanke ➡ Toney in 29
Bowen + Bailey ➡ Salah + Palmer in 30 for -4
Morris + Barkley ➡ Haaland + McAtee in 31 for -4
FH in 34
Build slowly towards BB 37 from gw 32 to 37 with FTs.

All this while having an attack of

Salah - Son - Saka - Palmer
Haaland - Watkins - Toney

Thoughts? 🙂

Amazed I am on a green arrow with Areola, Palmer benched and got in Senesi for a (-4)... Probably gonna turn red after the Arsenal game tomorrow ? Have Gabriel and Saka (not capped)

With there being an outside shot of Richarlison featuring in BGW29, Haaland + KDB to Morris + Bowen, make benching headache easier too:

Saka Bowen Foden Palmer (Richarlison)
Watkins Solanke Morris

14.7m ITB to get Salah & Haaland back for GW30, if Richarlison out for GW29 then Son comes in

Foden gonna be about 10mil next season isn’t he. Saka too.

Will take that for sure.. 79 w/ Gabriel (or Dalot) to play. Will see what Andy has to say on the GW.

Here’s an even trickier next week benching decision:

Saka Son KDB Foden Barkley
Solanke Haaland Watkins

It’s KDB or Barkley right? Never thought I’d hear myself say that.

People think they were unlucky getting Dubravka's 7 points I got 0 from Pickford.

Besides a Rashford banger out of nowhere, my prediction of MU being toothless was correct... even more pain that I started Ederson over Areola.

My post got removed earlier because I said Haaland would penetrate through United’s leaky defence.

I had predicted the correct score 3-1 too

Which two Bournemouth players to get? (Already have Solanke)

Manchester United fans really thought they had a chance today 😆 whatever happened to past 8 years

Apologies if it’s been posted already..
Is there any news on when Alisson is due back from injury. Wondering whether to bring in Kelleher on WC

Any chance Senesi will be back for the DGW?

How did Solanke look today?

Time to sell Kdb?

That Senesi injury today is a real kick in the teeth. We talk about variance a lot but there's not much that measures up to losing both a clean sheet and a pre-planned dgw player in terms of pure bad luck.

Apologies if it’s been posted already but I’m on 76 with Saka, Gabriel and Saliba to come. Just a quick reminder to all not to boast, it’s shameful.

Lost all interest this week after dropping outside the top 1M again and figured team can't get any worse.

Managed a 71 points (Saka and Gabriel to go) but stupidly benched Doughty and refused to do KDB > Son for free because I just left my team. That's my rough with the smooth.

Really need a Saka blank to maintain this 19% green arrow

A) kluviert b) Marcus Tavernier c)barkley? Thinking a?Thanks

Not FH’ing in 29, would you bring in Barkley or Bowen this week?

Areola
Gabriel Saliba Doughty
Saka Son Foden Palmer
Haaland Watkins Solanke
Leno // Hwang* Gusto Taylor

In GW30 I may well do Foden > Salah. (Even after the last couple!)

0.5m short of that currently. A few options:

A) Saliba > Kerkez (DGW and better GW30 matchup than Saliba, but BOU shaky defense?)

B) Hwang > Barkley (sensible as DGW, but who do I even start Barkley ahead of?)

I could technically do both but feels overkill? A Saliba sale may look enticing with the fixtures, but ARS do have a fantastic defense.

Separately: Leno > Neto or no? (With one of the above, it would be -4).
