    Ederson
    AWB Robertson Doherty
    Salah(c) Son Martial Anderson Ricky
    Auba Mitro

    Hamer Jiminez Digne Alonso

    Really unsure about benching those 3 but odds are at least two of them will sub in.

    Ederson
    Alonso - Robertson - Doherty - AWB
    Sterling - Hazard - Son - Pogba
    Auba - Ings

    Stek, Fraser, Kamara, Peltier

    Relatively happy with the team but can't settle on a captain.

    My City assets have not been doing it for me recently... Still can't bring myself to go double City attack or get rid of Sterling though...

    Transfer: Snodgrass > Pogba

    Start one of Alonso, Doherty or Bennett (Wolves).
    Head says do nothing stupid and go Alonso but heart says Doherty.
    Other defenders are Robertson and AWB.

    His attacking threat is nowhere near the other three. Having slightly better clean sheet odds than Alonso/Doherty doesn't make up for that imo.

    Begovic (still, somehow. Can't wait for WC!)
    Shaw Doherty Digne
    Salah (c) Anderson Richarlison Son
    Kane Rashford Auba

    Lots of rotation risk there, mostly Rashford but hoping he and Shaw can be nice differentials for me. -4 too.

    I’m one of the loons KM79 is talking about and have 3 United players including 2 defenders. But let me defend myself, I am quite obsessive about this game and am having an awful season. FFS has filled a gap as my beloved United sank into the abyss led by a manager playing puke football.
    Cue OGS and back to the good old days, he put a smile on my face. I could have a great gw or the way things are going this season it will probably be 1-0 to Huddersfield but either way I’m looking forward to watching United play today and I haven’t said that in years.
    All in on United:
    Fab
    Lindlehof, Shaw, Alonso,
    Hazard,Sterling,Richarlison,Sane
    Aubameyang,Rashford(c),Ings.
    Subs:
    Hamer,Snodgrass,Bennett,Balbueno.
    Happy Christmas.

    I try avoid United players to remove any bias. I would love nothing more to bring in Martial, Rashford and Lindelof and to then soak up all the enjoyment of a 5-0 rout today but that's just wish fulfillment.

    I do think I'll bring in Martial or Pogba tomorrow after one more day off fixtures to analyse today.

    Hamer, Doherty, Guendouzi, Zabaleta

    Brought in Martial for Pedro. My extremely biased opinion is that people are reading way too much into him being missing from the team hotel.

    Major Salah fear, as I think he'll start.

    The lad who if he had half a brain could be good player - speed, tricks but little end product - hence he's playing for Wolves.

    I see a lot of people are playing awb(CAR) and benching doherty(ful), alonso(wat) or digne(bur). Are you really sure that awb will outscore them? Are you expecting clean sheet for palace?
    In the last 10 games cardiff blanked 2 times, crystal palace - 3. Cardiff scored a total of 18 goals this season, crystal palace - 17.
    I have doherty and alonso and theres no way i would bench them and play awb

    I have played AWB ahead of Digne with Alonso and Doherty playing too. It was a 50/50 call and got a feeling in going to have one out two benched players because of Xmas rotation making the decision irrelevant anyway.

    That's surprising, he is above Digne and just below Doherty of total Bonus Points "Points" for the season

    Ah well you roll the dice and see what happens ......
