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.

    Is it worth doing Young > Valencia ?

    Who do u think is going to play next week?

    I think both are going to play and its a matter of luck who will make more pts out of them two. Valencia may be a better option for freeing cash!

      Such a sideways move though. If you have no other pressing concerns, then make that transfer. Young could still start and do well vs Fulham though.

      Yeah i've got Nani. Looking at Valencias history it makes me think that he is not rotation prone, unlike nani and young. I'm getting him in.

      Already done it after seeing Tony's performance earlier. Didn't think he'd be back to his best initially but boy was I wrong. Doing it also allowed me to tinker and upgrade Pogrobthebank to Aguero. Do it. Tony is sensational.
