With their city rivals making a statement at Carrow Road yesterday, the Sunday Dugout Discussion opens to see if league leaders Manchester United can hold their nerve and restore a five point lead at home to Aston Villa. It’s the only Premier League game taking place today, and the team news for the encounter is in…

Man United XI: De Gea, Rafael, Ferdinand, Evans, Evra, Valencia, Carrick, Scholes, Young, Welbeck, Rooney.

Villa XI: Given, Hutton, Collins, Baker, Lichaj, Bannan, Ireland, Clark, Gardner, Weimann, Agbonlahor.

As expected, Sir Alex Ferguson restores Paul Scholes to his starting line-up in place of Ryan Giggs. There’s also recalls for Rafael and Danny Welbeck, with Phil Jones and Javier Hernandez dropping to the bench.

Alex McCleish is without the injured duo of Stephen Warnock and Chris Herd, so there are starts for both Gary Gardner and Ciaran Clark.

The Dugout Discussion chatroom can be accessed right here, and will remain open the duration of today’s football, including the FA Cup tie between Tottenham and Chelsea.

        he was and Rooney to Tevez is probably not a bad idea. But the margins aren't as great as many would suggetst or believe... and the margin for this week has turned out to be nil.

      Bearing in mind, Everton are a tough nut at the best of times (for Rooney he really struggles - scored at Goodison 0506) and Wolves are in disarray then a move to Teveguero makes sense.

      Watch Wigan tomorrow as if they prove tricky for Arsenal then captaining a City forward over Dempsey may be more benficial.

    Big Relief with that Rooney goal, last kick before getting subbed. He really does look a bit off, still so much bertter than Welbeck though.
