9/11. Shaw/Mazraoui always 50:50. Lacey not a safe prediction but stand by Friday’s comments with the way it played out.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

#MUFC GW5 prediction for #FPL @Jumpthewave:

• LB a toss-up; Shaw’s fitness unclear (50% 🟠)
• Lacey rewarded for debut goal (50% 🟠)

Least certain prediction yet. Cunha CF not worked recently – Mbeumo better there. Both benched midweek so likely to start. Need balance.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@Busbybabes10 @Jumpthewave Going forward yes. Defensively I thought Dorgu was terrible vs Sabah. So passive and all over the shop positionally.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@Busbybabes10 @Jumpthewave Shaw will start if he's fit. But Mazraoui and Dorgu have both been poor thus far, and if Amass doesn't get a go in the Carabao, unlikely he's thrown in now either.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

10/11, with Dorgu in for the doubtful Shaw. Expecting big changes vs Brighton in the Carabao Cup tonight; likely starts for Darlow, Mazraoui, Yoro, Santos, Mount and Šeško, among others.

#MUFC GW4 prediction for #FPL @Jumpthewave:

• Shaw doubt – missed Sabah/training (75% 🟠)
• Cunha risk; game may suit Mbeumo CF (80% 🟢)
• Fernandes limped home from Sabah (90% 🟢)

Best guess is same EVE (a) XI. Rested Rashford likely starts. Dorgu outside chance at LB/LW.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@RichRedVoices @VikashPatel94 But it’s clear in the audio the decision given is because of Haaland alone? The assistant says ‘Enzo’ because he’s clearly drifted offside initially but that’s to identify his position, not necessarily an offence.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@RichRedVoices @VikashPatel94 Agreed, that’s what I meant by process failure though! Not considering anything beyond the initial reasons for the decision. And linking to your first tweet: it’s not really overruling a correct decision on the pitch, because that didn’t concern Enzo.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@Malachians Interested how you’re coming to that conclusion? Assistant gives the offside (and for Haaland, not Enzo). VAR should have sent him to the screen.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

11/11! First full house of the season but definitely the most straightforward selection thus far. Glad no need to do this for Sabah...

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

#MUFC GW3 prediction for #FPL @Jumpthewave:

• Likely unchanged, no need
• Only Tielemans slight risk (75% 🟠)
• Amad still unavailable, hasn’t trained

Should be a straightforward one for EVE (a). Rashford did enough to start again. Santos an outside shot of coming back in.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@AndyMitten Meant to say, UWS arrived on Saturday btw – all good.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@AndyMitten Believe so, summer issue was the first. Nothing in today's post; if it hasn't arrived by Monday, will let you know.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@AndyMitten Okay, thanks. I'm in South London (insert joke here)...

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@fplvincenzo IMO the usual Moyes block against ‘big’ teams doesn’t play to Mbeumo’s strengths at all. His predominant receiving position will likely be very wide. Garner back for 90 mins now also a big factor team strength-wise.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@VikashPatel94 Early signs are promising; De Ligt back by the end of this month can help too. I’ll be very surprised if Carrick isn’t forced into playing Dorgu at LB eventually.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@VikashPatel94 It’s still an easily PL top 4-challenging and CL knockout-capable squad. But I don’t think anyone can expect much more than that without some extreme luck and very shrewd management of Shaw, Fernandes and Šeško in particular.

[Jasper Dunning @Jasper_Dunning]

@brunoballl I mean, it’s just not that simple is it? They’ve sold Reijnders, Rodri and Nico for £165m…
