The Gameweek continues with a pair of Sunday Premier League fixtures – beginning with United’s visit to Wolves, as Wayne Rooney sports the armband for thousands of Fantasy managers. Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to catch the reaction from the Molineux clash, plus the encounter between Newcastle and Norwich later today.

Sir Alex Ferguson’s teamsheet brings mixed news for Fantasy managers. Wayne Rooney starts as expected, but Ashley Young drops to the bench with Antonio Valencia making his return from injury to earn a role on the flank. Danny Welbeck also starts and is likely to be out wide, with Javier Hernandez given the nod up front. Rafael lines up at right-back with Phil Jones missing out once again.

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

    I doubt I am going to qulaify for this latest Scout cup. Lots of people are bound to have Evans, Sigurdsson and Valencia.
    I only have one of three and another one on the bench. Guess who...?
    I blame my embarassment of riches Like Morrisson and eh Turner.
    I only hope Silva has a flyer against Chelsea he is my first sub.

    Really annoying me that I played Siggy thinking he would do well at Fulham this week and then most people who didn't have faith in him and stuck him on the bench will get his points now anyway. I know it pays to have a good squad and that's the rules but still aggrieved nonetheless!

    Dear Tim Krul,

    I have had faith in you so many GWs this winter. I even have the man Vorm in my team, but I still believe in you. CS + PS + A would be much appreciated today. If you feel tired towards the end it's ok to fake an injury after 60 mins of play.
