Man United suffered a blow when they hosted Pep Guardiola and his Man City side in the Premier League last weekend, which means Mouriho and his players will be on the war path when they travel to Vicarage Road to face Watford this weekend.

It is a game in which the Red Devils are firm favourites and  whilst The Hornets enjoyed a big win over West Ham at the London Stadium on Saturday, the visitors look on course to bring in plenty of fantasy points.

Aside from the defeat to their bitter rivals United have enjoyed a superb start to the season, with three wins from four and seven goals scored, meaning that they have been a goldmine for points so far.

With that in mind, you would be foolish not to consider some of Mourinho’s men for a place in your fantasy side as we head into gameweek five.

To give you a helping hand, the fantasy football gurus here at Shoot! Towers have come up with THREE top tips from the United squad for this weekend…

The England captain would have been an obvious choice a few years ago, but times have changed and now not so many players will have picked him, which puts you at an advantage.

With the forward being rested for United’s Europa League trip to Feyenoord he will be fresh and ready to go back in the Premier League, and grab you plenty of points.

The right winger turned wing-back has enjoyed a renaissance at Old Trafford over the past couple of seasons and is a great pick for your back line this weekend.

With a strong chance of a clean sheet, being part of such a solid back four, he’d be a winner anyway, however, add to that the striking talent he has to aim for with crosses when he gets forward, which is why you also need this next man straight in the line-up.

The super Swede has made a flying start to life in England, scoring on his club debut at Wembley, his Premier League debut at Bournemouth, his home debut against Southampton and also bagging one on his Manchester derby debut.

He has firmly established himself as king on the pitch and in the fantasy world, the former Barcelona man is definitely one to consider as your captain.
