Saturday Dugout Discussion

Gameweek 34 kicks-off with a trip to Old Trafford between Premier League leaders Manchester United and Everton. Then we have six 3pm games to pour over, followed by an evening game where West Ham visit the Champions. The Surgery has shut for the week, but the Dugout Discussion chatroom takes it place. So come in, sit down, and enjoy the roller-coaster ride that is Fantasy Football.

The team news from our early game is in and it’s certainly eyebrow-raising stuff…

Man United XI: Van Der Saar, O’Shea, Ferdinand, Evans, Fabio, Valencia, Gibson, Anderson, Nani, Rooney, Hernandez

Everton XI: Howard, Hibbert, Jagielka, Distin, Baines, Coleman, Neville, Rodwell, Bilyaletdinov, Osman, Beckford

Sir Alex pulls out another totally unpredictable line-up, which sees rests handed to key defenders Patrice Evra and club captain Nemanja Vidic. Dimitar Berbatov again fails to even make the substitutes bench, with a groin injury the reason.

The visitors line-up is much more like what we all expected, with Jermain Beckford up top on his own in front of a midfield five. That midfield five does not include either Tim Cahill or Mikel Arteta, with the latter not fit enough to make the bench.

Akers Richard or Akers, as he is known, has been regularly haunting this site since July 2008. He is young and foolish, take what he says with a pinch of salt. Follow them on Twitter

    Perhaps, this 3rd striker spot in my team is just cursed and everyone who I get there gets injured and never plays.

            If you think Rooney's been the best player out there, you're an idiot.

            It would be like claiming Rooney plays in the same position as Fabregas.

            Well done on the win. It's a shame many United fans don't deserve the success their team gives them.

                  Bizarre you won't let the fabs thing go, as it's actually been shown to be right time and time again. It's obvious you didn't watch the game today as even the commentators were mentioning it (comparing rooney to zidane, saying how deep he was playing), Keep bringing it up, i'm loving it 😆

                  And anyway, it doesn't surprise me you aren't watching the match as you spent the whole game making sh*t jokes no one laughs at. Stick to that next time, off out to enjoy the sunshine. Toodles.

                  Not that AP needs any defending, but go to your DVR and witness Announcer Ian Darke on ESPN at the 19:56 mark of the first half: "Rooney is playing as the third central midfielder".

            if rooney gets baps it will be by default. probably his worst and most frustrating game since his revival. if you believe spraying passes across the pitch (passes which the opposition is happy for him to make btw) is a sign of greatness fair enough. i prefer when rooney is slipping players in on goal, or thumping goals into the corner. remind me of all the times he did that as opposed to me extremely well marshalled by jagielka

      It's a shame.

    really needed something from Rooney, is hoping for at least 1 BP a waste of time?
