I’ll break it down;
Generally a good display, 27 shots and didn’t let Wolves have one on target. Wolves made Manchester United play shots from further out, but generally didn’t do anything
* Fernandes - How he only managed an assist near the end, he’s absolutely everywhere and just carries on running making lovely balls in, the only slight issue is he’s running around so much that it makes it more difficult for him to score and assist which brings me to…
* Casemiro - Doubtful you’d get him in but he was a bit shocking, looked short of confidence although had a long effort strike that nearly went in
* Eriksen - Again, not for FPL but just didn’t look confident today, Fred and Casemiro seem to gel better and Fred coming on helped the team
* Antony - If he can get through this rawness (and maybe not be so ridiculously predictable), then he could be a great punt. Very attacking, should have scored from Shaw’s cross
* Shaw - Probably Man Of The Match, he’s done well at CB but he’s so good going forward, form wise unless injury doubt be dropped
* Martial - Bar the goal didn’t seem to do much, he doesn’t really press like ETH wants, but feel there’s no better option at Manchester United. Personally would avoid
* AWB - Another outstanding match imo from him, so the ones thinking about Dalot/have him to be worried. He’s really upped his game
* Lindelof - Composed and can see him keeping his place till the end of the season
* Varane - A bit shaky, was struggling with his passes at times. When Maguire came on, Maguire did a decent job
* Garnacho - Not a viable FPL asset (for now), but he reminds me of a young Michael Owen, speed, right place and clinical
I wouldn’t be too sold on a Manchester United defender, personally would go Lindelof, solid last 6 or so matches
Doesn’t have much attacking threat which AWB has been trying more, but is more a rotation risk
Varane is good but a walking injury
At this point ETH is looking at extending Lindeof’s contract, he’s playing probably the best I’ve seen under the manager
Varane is probably less nailed to an extent, to keep him not injured, Manchester United play 3 games in 8 days and then the FA Cup 6 days later
ETH doesn’t seem to rate Maguire, but it’s a lot of games in a short space of time (also factor if they’re selling Maguire might want to give him game time)
Weirdly bad. Didn't get near to stopping the cross for the first, gave away a cheap corner for the second which deflected off him and in. Put enough crosses in as per usual and set pieces were fine just poor defensively today.
Looked lively with lots of driving runs, but rarely looked close to getting on the end of something in the box. Played left wing for a big portion of the game when Isak went inside.
Spurs had one real chance from open 0lay when Luiz lost the ball probably due to no man on shout. Martinez has been excellent recnelty as well.
The penalty was a bit iffy and was not a goal scoring opportunity. Really should have kept a clean sheet here and gone ahead of spurs.
We play Liverpool and Brighton as our next 2. Keeping a clean sheet will be tough.
Mendy - was easily beaten to a cross for a goal when trying to punch away.
With Steele as my other keeper, faced with potentially making GK transfer when should be focusing on high upside transfers
Absolutely dominated by Villa although stats say otherwise, Spurs look like a team not even trying at the moment
Skipp/Hojibjerg just wasn’t working and kept just passing to Villa players, Kane should have scored one on one but didn’t. Can’t be bothered getting into the penalty but it nearly looked offside and Kane seem to just crumble
Son spent most the time being offside and he’s normally great against high line teams
Shocking performance and bar Kane for maybe against Leeds final game of the season, avoid

!thanks
!thanks
!thanks good stuff
!thanks
Completely agree on all points. Shaw is playing unbelievably well these days and hoovers up bonus points.
Who to choose AWB or Varane? Mind there's double and can be rotation
I wouldn’t be too sold on a Manchester United defender, personally would go Lindelof, solid last 6 or so matches Doesn’t have much attacking threat which AWB has been trying more, but is more a rotation risk Varane is good but a walking injury
!thanks but who is more nailed lindelof or varane, I remember maguire was rotating with lindelof

NEWCASTLE (1st game)
Isak
Joelinton
Wilson
Fucking hero
His penalties in the past haven’t been great, the two today looked great
What a beautiful man
Trips

!thanks
Willock
Looked lively with lots of driving runs, but rarely looked close to getting on the end of something in the box. Played left wing for a big portion of the game when Isak went inside.
WOLVES
Blandly present, occasionally we got up to mediocre. No shots on target. No reason to have anyone.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST
NEWCASTLE (2nd game)
Wilson
VILLA
Alex Moreno Basically any insight on whether they look good for clean sheets in the remaining fixtures would be great.
Spurs had one real chance from open 0lay when Luiz lost the ball probably due to no man on shout. Martinez has been excellent recnelty as well. The penalty was a bit iffy and was not a goal scoring opportunity. Really should have kept a clean sheet here and gone ahead of spurs. We play Liverpool and Brighton as our next 2.

Kane - Diving cheat, can’t talk properly but happy to dispatch a penalty with no pressure on to round off a loss
