Bargain Man United transfer option can be Amorim's secret weapon as Erling Haaland problem endures

Ruben Amorim may not have started his Manchester United spell with a win, but the changes he's implementing at Old Trafford are already being felt - and they could have a big impact on Fantasy Football managers.

The Premier League returned with a bang after the international break, with more than three goals a game providing FPL bosses with plenty of attacking returns. That made it a great week for the likes of Matheus Cunha and James Maddison, who top scored with 16pts thanks to their respective braces against Fulham and Man City.
