Sunday Dugout Discussion

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.

    Guys, will Nani play next week then ❓ Is it certain that Fergie didn't risk him and wanted him fit for the run-in ❓

    Thinking the time might have come to say goodbye to Mr Silva. Would you rather get Valencia (already have Rooney and Evans, don’t like SAF’s rotation) or Walcott (proud owner of Robin)?

      I'd have both but of the two I fancy Walcott at the moment. More nailed on and on great form since Sagna's return. Having a natural full-back behind him rather than an OOP centre back is making a huge difference IMO.

          its completely inappropriate to be talking about points off the bench consider just why it is they would be coming off... there are some serious nitwits on this site.if the game is postponed its postponed,if you get the points you get the points BUT PLEASE SHUT UP ABOUT IT.

        An ald Yamaha RX 395 amp through an Audiophile 24/96 soundcard at the computer.

        I will be using them for the home theatre to be purchased soon. Looks like the Samsung 8 series Smart tv.

        Will also be purchasing a new set of kit to go in the living room. Yet to be decided, but looking to spend approx 2000 Au dollars, approx 1500 quid on the set up. Not alot I know for an amp and speakers but can stretch for greatness.
