In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
That’s almost identical to mine!
Debating who to transfer in: Aubamayeng or Lacazette?
Lacazette is more value for money but I think that train is about to pass as their fixtures get tougher now.
After the deadline I’ve got 2FT and £2.9m banked.
How do these look?
A) Mane/Tripp > Sterling/Maguire
B) Mane/Tripp/Murray > KDB/Maguire/Lacazette -4
C) Mane/Fraser > KDB/Ramsey or Ozil
Current rank 27k and happy to take a risk on KDB or an Arsenal mid if

B BUT Sterling is a great shout as well he's going to rack up lots of points. I'm bringing him in potentially next week. I want to see what Aguero does tomorrow against Burnley.
Zaha out injured? Also swap Ings for Jimenez ?

Cheers.
It's only for two weeks. Yes Fulham havn't looked good lately. But a month ago people were touting their players. Huddersfield and Cardiff next, points are there.
Who’s your captain?
Last minute used my FT getting in Knockaert for Ralls. Wanted to save 2 FTs for next week but if Mane doesn't play today I have no bench due to injuries. Plus Ralls/Cardiff is a fecking disaster.
Aguero
I’m tempted to go for a panicked last minute wildcard. What do you think of this: Ryan
Alonso - Robertson - Mendy
Salah - Hazard - Richarlison - Maddison
Aguero - Wilson - Mitrovic
Alonso - Robertson - Mendy
Salah - Hazard - Richarlison - Maddison
Aguero - Wilson - Mitrovic
Sub: Hamer, Wan-Bissaka, Bennet, Stephens
It's the default team. Pretty much the same as mine
Ryan
Alonso - Robertson - Mendy
Salah - Hazard - Richarlison - Maddison
Aguero - Wilson - Mitrovic
Sub: Hamer, Wan-Bissaka, Bennet, Stephens
Guys Is Zaha injured?
You on wildcard? What have you settled on?
I remember reading the thread and you were getting Sterling IIRC
Ings for Jiminez or Wilson for Zaha guys? Or both and take the hit? I need a reply within 10 min

They’re all popular players but wouldn’t say in reality it’s a default team. Even Salah (who it’s clearly built around) is down to less than 30% ownership. Then people like Mendy aren’t back in people’s team yet.

Wilson for Zaha out of those imo.
Nah he's right. It's a template side. The only real debate is Salah & Maddison/Richarlison Vs Mane & KDB. A lot of people have ditched Salah because he hasn't looked sharp but if he returns double digits this weekend they'll all come flooding back.
Nah as I said I think they’re all amongst the highest rated players and therefore popular individually, but as a collective I don’t see many sides fitting them all in. Lots of people went Salah > Hazard when they started to dump the former.
De Bruyne is owned by 4% of the game. He’s not relevant to a template debate and I don’t think a switch to KDB has been the move from people dropping Salah. Players like Lacazette are gaining more traction as people spread those funds around.
Ryan
Alonso - Robertson - Mendy
Salah - Hazard - Richarlison - Maddison
Aguero - Wilson - Mitrovic

Looks well structured anyway but I'm curious as to what changes you're actually making from your current team as most of the players you're bringing in have already been popular for weeks now.
Random question - say two of your players in your starting XI are injured and don't play... is it possible for two players to come off the bench in their place? Or is only one player on your bench able to come on?
Every player on your bench could come on, there's no limit.
Used my WC ages ago.
I have:
Ederson
Trippier, TAA, Alonso
Hazard, Salah, Richarlison, Lucas
Mitro, Aguero, Ings
Didn't go for sterling in the end. I'll wait it out and see how Salah does this week
Sterling benched
Thank feck I didn't bring him in.

Sterling
Goals either side of Mitrovic but not even an assist. Apparently he played well in the international break but he might have to go if nothing this week.
Edit: got the assist now.
Pereyra on the bench too

No Mane means Pereyra points for meee
I don't know why I even bother with Harry Kane, mouthbreathing cnut.
There’s the standard Mendy assist.
Feck sake. Took Lamela out for Rich and decided against Mane to Silva. Firmino on the bench as well.
On for three bonus points as well. Coming straight back into my team.
I'm on 38 when Pereyra comes in, before bonus. Only Robertson and Richarlison yet to play. Not good, but seems slightly above par looking at my main mini league.
Thank feck for Mendy.

Do I drop Alonso or Trippier for Mendy?
Looks like TAA is dropped.

Trippier I guess because if not you'll have 2 premium defenders who could get rotated. I'm in the same situation but not sure that's the most pressing transfer to make.
I captained Mendy this week, what a decision that was given the rest of the players that have played are Hazard, King, Aguero, Murray, Doherty and Alonso.
He might have just saved a shocker of a week. Still have Richarlison, Maddison and Hennessey to play. Moura replacing Mane with his astounding 3pts.

I'm thinking of bringing Trippier in for Bennett and going for 433.
Seems a scary thought not having 4 in midfield but I could have this team
Patricio
Tripper Mendy Alonso Robertson
Hazard Richarlison KDB or Mane
Aguero | Wilson or Ings | Lacazette or Firmino

A lot people transferred out Salah for Sterling this week. Ouch.
Really liking the look of Billing in this game for 5th mid.

What did KDB look like today? I'm tempted to bring him in for Walcott and swap Aguero for Vardy.
It’s hilarious how immune Salah is to bonus points meanwhile Lovren often gets 3.
