Well, unless you are on a social media detox or living in a cave, you probably already know what this man did yesterday.
It was men against boys at the Etihad and leading the men was this Norwegian, scoring three and assisting two. Add a neat 3 BPs and his total goes up to 23 points for the week.
Three back-to-back home hattricks take Haaland‘s total to 14 goals this season.
He is going to break all sorts of records, isn’t he?
Most captained, as usual, and owned by 82% of the teams, has there ever been an asset as guaranteed as this one in FPL? I surely can’t remember.
Phil Foden
It does not happen often that you score a hat trick and are still not the talk of the town. But this is the sort of anonymity you have to suffer from when your teammate is a certain record-setting striker.
A lot of talk about Haaland, but a moment of appreciation to those who picked Foden this week is needed too.
It is telling that a goalkeeper was the man of the match in a game that finished nil all.
Meslier made six saves to secure his clean sheet, earning him three bonus points and 11 overall, which made him the highest-scoring keeper of the week.
Who Disappointed?
Manchester United Back Five
The back four of Malacia, Martinez, Varane, Dalot and keeper De Gea ended with a combined total of -5 points.
Varane’s game ended at the 39th minute with an injury and so was the only one of the defenders not to get negative points.
Come to think of it, he may have faked it to save some embarrassment. Who knows.
Booked already in the first half, Sinisterra had a brain-freeze moment when he blocked a free kick by standing too close to it, earning himself a second yellow card and a sending-off in the 47th minute.
The midfielder finished with -2 points and will miss the next game against Crystal Palace.
Joao Cancelo
The highest-owned defender failed to make an impact on either side of the pitch, shipping three goals and not scoring or assisting any of their own six.
