FPL: Three Manchester United Players You NEED In Your Fantasy Football Premier League Team
With the 2023/24 Premier League season just around the corner, FPL fans across the globe are working feverishly to complete their teams – with Manchester United in a strong position, it’s likely that most players’ team will include at least one Red Devils star.
In this list, we’ll be taking a look at three Manchester United players you will need in your fantasy football team if you want to stay ahead of the competition.
We’ll list the players in question, their FPL prices [via Official Premier League Fantasy Football] and why you’ll need them in your squad.
Additionally, we will also take a look at how each player on the list performed last season and examine if they can replicate their good form.
Diogo Dalot
Some may be surprised to see a player such as Diogo Dalot on a list like this – but not only is he a great source of FPL points, he’s also a complete bargain.
Ahead of the 2023/24 Premier League season, Dalot will cost you £5.0 to include in your Fantasy Football team – even for a defender, this is inexpensive.
Not only does Dalot collect clean sheet with a high frequency, he also chips in with goals and assists – last season, he picked up two assists and scored a single goals in the league.
Bruno Fernandes
Here’s a more obvious choice to include in your fantasy football outfit – Bruno Fernandes has been a staple of FPL teams since he joined United back in 2020.
He isn’t cheap – he will set you back a cool £8.5 – but compared with other top midfielders such as Kevin De Bruyne and Mohamed Salah, he is very affordable.
Not only does Fernandes pick up a number of goals and assists, he also takes free kicks, corners and penalties for the Red Devils, which expands his points outlet.
Marcus Rashford
Topping our list is the mercurial Marcus Rashford – last season, he was Manchester United’s top goalscorer with 17 strikes and five assists to his name.
Rashford will cost you £8.5 – but akin to Fernandes, he will virtually pay for himself, given his excellent points output and injury record.
If we would recommend any one Manchester United player to include in your fantasy football team ahead of the 2023/24 Premier League season, Rashford would be it – in the 2022/23 season, he picked up a total of 20 points.
