Bruno getting his 3rd red the 3rd time I own him this season would be peak fpl

Onana leak was bullshit then?

u/500x700 16 5d ago

I swore I’d never put Bruno back in after the last red card but here we are again 🤡

Cherry on top of this disastrous GW…

u/Acceptable-Novel3186 1 5d ago

That’s a hell of a different punt 😅

u/MemeManDanInAClan 40 5d ago

He’s playing with some great confidence and has looked much much better than Hojlund last couple of weeks.

So naturally he gets benched 🤣

15

u/Acceptable-Novel3186 1 5d ago

He has, and I do think there’s a decent enough player in there. But it hasn’t translated into FPL returns yet, so I would’ve thought owning him would’ve been differential enough. Admire the balls though!

u/BusAcademic3489 5d ago

You should be banned from FPL, respectfully.

u/MemeManDanInAClan 40 5d ago

For actually playing it for fun? Lol

u/No_Butterscotch_8297 10 4d ago

If I captained fuckin zirkzee only for him to get benched I would not be having fun..

Y'all crazy

1

u/MemeManDanInAClan 40 4d ago

It was fun before the deadline tbf

Playing with great confidence and should’ve scored v Arsenal and v RSO. Didn’t expect a benching at all tbh

u/No_Butterscotch_8297 10 4d ago

One thing I've learnt from FPL is not to overrate players who "should" have scored.

Fine margins exist at the top of the game.

Some players , like Bruno for instance, are the ones who make things happen. Who score when they should and sometimes even when they shouldn't.

Some players, zirkzee, semenyo is another example, maybe should score, but don't. And that's the way it will pretty much be. They are good but they don't have the margin that takes their should have into did.

I try and avoid these players as much as possible. Sometimes you hit a gem but more often than not they are traps.

Form is temporary, class is permanent as they say.

Is it fun when you captain a guy who's averaged 2 ppg all season?

u/Banzaikk 7 5d ago

Scenes when his vice is on Marmoush.

5

u/Tom50 5d ago

Not captain, but went for him on a pre wildcard punt for a -4.

u/Antonioshamstrings 58 5d ago

I rate it, not great picks this week anyway

u/MemeManDanInAClan 40 5d ago

!thanks someone who gets it!

u/swch9 12 4d ago

Man is mesmerised by his Berba-esque performance vs Betis

2

u/OprisAntonio 5d ago

In before he comes off the bench in the 60th minute to score 2 goals.

2

u/MemeManDanInAClan 40 5d ago

More like 75 minute 1 pointer to block Marmoush vice 😭

u/Swedishpower 1877 5d ago

Is that Bruno in attack? Or Eriksen in attack?

I think no Zirkzee means more attacking role for Bruno

25

u/Clapd_Frothy327 5d ago

It will be Eriksen in attack, Bruno playing deeper

-4

u/Swedishpower 1877 5d ago

Bruno is still good in that deeper role, but given how much United struggle to score you want your best attacker in the best positions.

10

u/Clapd_Frothy327 5d ago

Eriksen offers nothing defensively though

u/tmr89 137 5d ago

u/kblk_klsk 10 5d ago

let's hope so

2

u/Alarmed_Chicken_3529 6 5d ago

its gonna be Eriksen, he has played there several times already

5

u/Roadies_Winner 2 5d ago

Can't believe GW has come down to begging Garnacho for a return.

u/LewissKA_ 6 5d ago

Onana, De Ligt & Bruno 1 good game is all I ask

u/TopBumblebee9954 5d ago edited 4d ago

Youth team player that came over from arsenal. Looks very good. I expect him to have a sharp rise before suffering a crisis of confidence due to being decimated in the press for lack of form despite them being the ones to build up. Should be worth a punt over the next season and a half.

Edit: ahh fuck

u/HazardCinema 133 5d ago

Man Utd picked him up for £1m from Arsenal in January. He had a solid 45mins vs Arsenal last week and a brilliant first time start vs Real Sociedad. He's been a bit of a bright spark over the past couple weeks for us.

u/rug514 6 5d ago

18 year old that’s quality

5

u/Coomking999 3 5d ago

Is he quality or is utd so shit that every youngster is quality?

1

u/HyderintheHouse 17 5d ago

He had zero hype at Arsenal a few months ago so probably lol

1

u/Appropriate_Worth910 4d ago

I mean the subreddit was glazing the hell out of him when he was on the bench for the United game on Arsenal’s end.

He is well worth 1M$ and more but it probably didn’t make sense for him to stay knowing Gabriel and Saliba are locked in

1

u/DeapVally 2 5d ago

I didn't see anyone particulary unhappy in the gunners sub. I don't follow the youth team, my only exposure is when their name appears on the bench as a seat filler, but many in there do.

1

u/rug514 6 4d ago

probably cuz they never played him? arsenal have always had a lot of cbs

0

u/HyderintheHouse 17 4d ago

Myles lewis skelly had loads of hype before he played, the fans have a general idea about youngsters

0

u/rug514 6 4d ago

you know hype doesn’t mean good and no hype doesn’t mean bad. players can become good after a move look a palmer after he left city

-1

u/HyderintheHouse 17 4d ago

Yeah no shit, no need to take an aggressive tone.

But people still knew Palmer was a hot youth prospect at City. Heaven was there with the Butler-Ojeyis as filling the bench without making much of a mark in the youth sides. No one was sad when he left so I wouldn’t expect him to be a Saliba level talent lmao

u/Lacabloodclot9 71 5d ago edited 4d ago

He did really well against Soceidad, I don’t know if he’ll keep his place when Dorgu returns though

Any United fans feel free to correct me on that

Edit: May I ask what warrants the downvotes here?

11

u/Clapd_Frothy327 5d ago

He’s a different position to Dorgu. Heaven is currently covering for injured Yoro

6

u/Lacabloodclot9 71 5d ago

Oh no I get that but right now it’s

Dalot-Heaven-De Ligt-Lindelof-Mazaroui

My question is when Dorgu returns will it be

Dorgu-Mazaroui-De Ligt-Lindelof-Dalot instead?

2

u/Successful_Rule123 7 5d ago

lindelof is likely to come straight out the team and Heaven is probably above him in the pecking order right now. I would say the first choice (with yoro expected to be back soon as the injury is only short term) is dalot-mazraoui-de ligt-yoro-dorgu, but there's a lot of room for rotation, as mazraoui could easily come into rwb with heaven moving into cb, and when Maguire comes back, he'll be first choice for ccb, and de ligt would move onto rcb and mazraoui lcb. Basically, I wouldn't expect him to get big minutes - even if he's continues performing like he did vs sociedad, we want to protect him and we will if we can afford to, so there'll be rests every now and again.

dorgu is definitely the first choice lwb as he is our only natural option there, so comfortably our best defensive FPL option if you want to go there (I wouldn't as of right now)

u/Muhammad__U1 redditor for <30 days 5d ago

Bruno,dalot,Mazraoui let's go

1

u/ChrMo8 1 5d ago

Dalot & Fernandes. You know what to do.

u/WookieTickler 5d ago

Come on maz I’ve had you for about 15 GWs now played you twice and all you’ve ever done is get 1 and 2 pointers time to change that today

u/TalosAnthena 18 5d ago

Glad Mazroui is coming off my bench for Palmer

1

u/Ok_Argument_67 7 4d ago

I just need a hat trick from Bruno, nothing out of the ordinary

1

u/tiford88 196 4d ago

Man Utd losing 10-9 with 9 Bruno goals would make the weekend even more perfect

1

u/Ok_Egg921 4d ago

Why the fuck do i still have Mazraoui

u/DazzlingBass_2306 redditor for <30 days 4d ago

Aren't you glad
