Sunday Dugout Discussion

Sunday delivers a double header of lip-smacking ties, as old rivals United and Liverpool clash at Old Trafford, whilst Arsenal host City in the four o’clock kick-off. With a host of big Fantasy assets on show, our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to catch the real-time yelps and cries as events unfold.

The team news for the lunchtime kick-off finds Sir Alex Ferguson opting for the experienced pairing of Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand at the back, with Jonny Evans reportedly missing out with a hamstring problem. Elsewhere in the United lineup, Danny Welbeck is drafted in, along with Shinji Kagawa as Antonio Valencia and the rather unfortunate Javier Hernandez drop to the bench.

Visitors Liverpool make just one change: Joe Allen comes into the midfield with Jordan Henderson dropping out. Andre Wisdom again occupies the right-back role, then, with Glen Johnson deployed at left-back. Both Daniel Sturridge and the returning Fabio Borini find places on the bench.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Both feet off the ground, you can see why the ref has sent him off.

    It won't get rescinded, because that won't discourage that kind of tackle.

              (a) racism is discriminating against people because of their colour or race
              (b) people were confused whether walcott or wilshire got a yellow card
              (c) somebody said "they don't exactly look the same"
              (d) I replied to his post saying "all black people look alike to me" (or something very similar)
              (e) this was a joke
              (f) this joke in no way discriminated against anyone
              (g) somebody with a black footballer in his gravataar is hardly likely to be racist

      Reds to both sides is usually about 22/1. Usually a good bet when Dean is in charge.

      I really dislike him. So willing (almost eager) to inject himself into games. And not just this game, those two calls were borderline, but he's the most card-happy ref in the league. Never lets the game flow. And because he always makes a controversial call we have to see 20 close-ups per game of his bald ugly mug.

      he can only cross when Giroud plays, no point crossing high for Walcott. I think Sagna has been better in second half and more involved after Giroud came in. Just hoping for a CS against West Ham, everything else is bonus
