Tuesday’s Dugout Discussion
The gameweek is brought to an end at Old Trafford tonight when Wayne Rooney will be expected to produce a performance to repay the faith of his many Fantasy Premier League owners. Rooney lines up against a West Ham side as Ferguson’s men look to bounce back from the 3-1 Goodison reverse.
The team news finds Rooney reassuringly in place up front with Berbatov once again. There are changes elsewhere though no doubt with Sunday’s Carling final in mind. Vidic returns to the defence in place of Evans, meaning that Brown keeps his place along with Neville at right-back. Ferdinand doesn’t make the bench despite returning from his ban. Even more suprisingly Ferguson goes with Foster in goal and Anderson and Gibson in midfield. Van der Sar, Carrick, Fletcher and Park all make way then. As for the Hammers – it’s just one change with Mark Noble coming in for the suspension tightrope walking Parker.
Tonight’s Dugout Discussion is now open in our live chatroom. Get over there now and start celebrating or mourning your Rooney armband.
fyi everyone, liveff.com are now showing bonus points as well.

top stuff again!
come on rooney!!!
Wazza hat trick pls!
Maybe Ferguson came up with this team by playing blind man’s bluff.
Very odd.
Everbody has ron as captain so does it matter?
ID GOT CARRICK AS WELL.JUST NEEDED 2 POINTS FROM HIM TO WIN MY HEAD TO HEAD IN A LEAGUE.52 EACH AT THE MOMENT AND WE BOTH HAVE EVRA AND ROONEY.HE HAS LEE COMING OFF THE BENCH FOR ANOTHER 2.IM SO P OFF
Don’t shout!
sorry for caps lock
actually we are 35 each.dont know where i got 52 from?.you can see how angry i am,cant even get the score right
I do know the feeling.
All too well. Oh, yes.
I know how you feel player. I have Fletcher. Only brought him in to replace that idiot Nani before he dropped in value. Bad choices.
fletcher was always risky if you ask me
Ha ha jez its Mike, Kev has carrick as well so all I need is rooney and evra to do well and I win
oh hi mike i spent the money lol.can i pay ya next week?.lol

In the tweets sir…

Nice one, cheers guys
good work mark by the way, this site is spectacular
Tevez is most likely to be back on Friday. But then man CIty match is on Saturday. So cutting it fine dont you think?
Even if he does play he may be jet lagged and with worries about his baby daughter in the back of his mind.
Chelsea will win 2-1

i reckon wham could get something from this!
Dyer on the bench- what’s the chances he’ll be out for the season in 2 hrs time?
is kick off at 8?
It’s not possible to get the chatroom on an iPhone is there?
Not having flash player is hurting the iPhone badly- means I still need a laptop!
youd need to jailbreak it but it can be done
BBC website:”In League Two, unstoppable football machine Rochdale take on Bradford”. A quote I would never, ever, ever think I would read on the BBC. C’mon The Dale.
0-1 to Bradford
Could this finally be their year? Only ever been promoted once…
Right you are Marknlard in the great year of 69 just before they put a man on the moon which I gather was a lot easier to do than Rochdale’s promotion.
They should go up which will save me ££ on wasteful trips to Wembley.
Oh yeah! return of the Monthly Picks.
why only 2 Everton midfielders? both quite low down as well. Pienaar?
lol and why is it Leon Osman who’s highest?
I have a feeling it’s because Mark was struggling to rephrase “he has good fixtures” 15 different ways each week
Mark, is the new comments system nearly ready to go live?
f&ck sake Valencia, how many 1on1′s has he missed recently?
He’s bound to score tonight, SO much space.
PS: Tony Gale is a good pundit
If he didn’t miss them he’d be a lot more and you wouldn’t have only bought him for the double!
Anderson injured.
Listening to game on 5 live..good to have a prem manager on there and Martinez interesting bloke. But when he says about identifying Valencia vs Spector as key as Valencia is Man U’s main outlet….cant help thinking if he had made more attempt to actually cover his left side against Lennon he might not have conceded NINE! Easier said than done!
Good point.
Ha! Stuttgart beating Barcelona! Great stuff.
stuttgart 1-0 barcelona
anyone watching the man u match online?
yeah man
site??
not allowed to post it pyrohippy

http://www.google.com
never heard of it…
Cheers Frosty – brilliant!!!
cheers matey
Damn, so much for a barcelona CS….
went for puyol over givet this weekend, im gutted :/
Lucky they’re not 2 or 3 down mate, they’re all over the place so far.
Stuttgart look very good but you feel they will need at least a 3 goal lead to get through at Camp Nou.
park on for anderson
park on
park off
park life
united are still looking a bit dodgy defensively
What a ding dong battle this is. WHU look like their up for it.
lucky foster there…diamanti nearly scored
OK this sounds odd but my Paddy Power page appears to be in Spanish for no reason!It just changed! Where do I click to change it back?!Tried shutting and opening again!
Top left just above where you log in there’s two icons “EN” and “ES”. Click EN and you should be sorted.
Sorted thanks mate! Cant find betting for the championship. Thanks again appreciate that!
Valencia has another effort.
He had better not score, I’m in a battle with my league leader and we both have Evra and Rooney, but he has Valencia. neother of us has any West Ham. Hope Val gets sent off before he scores/assists!
I really don’t want a captain with 4 points when I have two players who scored 13 points and another who scored 10.
Come on, Shrek.
At least nearly everyone else has Rooney as capt it will make v little diff I recon…wonder how many people here have Rooney (c) and Evra!
And Valencia Toon.
What has Evra done other than score 4 points? Dawson nearly doubled that with one showing! Oh and I have Valencia
We’re all in that same boat Feanor. I do think the baldy pie eater will score or assist at least one in the 2nd half, reckon Carlton Cole will bag a goal as well though..
Sorted cheers mate! Cant find betting for the championship. Thanks again appreciate that!
No hassle!
Tevez news still sounds iffy.
Valencia just isn’t a finisher. And Anderson finishes his meals, that’s about it.
Great Touch. Berbatov.
roooneyyy
