The Cameroonian goalkeeper has been exceptional for the Red Devils since the turn of the year, often the sole factor in keeping the team in games rather than getting completely torn to shreds. Manchester United have conceded 67.95 xG this season, but only 51 goals in reality, showing that the former Ajax and Inter Milan man is performing at his absolute best given the amount of shots he has faced in an extremely turbulent season for the team, making him a prime candidate for save points in gameweek 36.
Alejandro Garnacho (£5.0M)
Averaging over five points per gameweek in the last five games, making him the 12th most in-form midfielder in the league, Alejandro Garnacho has been a rare offensive bright speak in this Manchester United team of late.
