Monday Dugout Discussion – Gameweek 1

20 August 2012 2179 comments

Akers

It’s the first Monday Night Football installment of the season, and we’re at Goodison Park to see Everton host Manchester United. The build-up to this game has surrounded around the arrival of Robin van Persie at Manchester United, and how he would feature this evening. The Dugout Discussion is open and the eagerly anticipated team news is in…

Everton XI: Howard, Hibbert, Baines, Distin, Jagielka, Neville, Osman, Fellaini, Pienaar, Gibson, Jelavic.
Man United XI: De Gea, Valencia, Vidic, Carrick, Evra, Cleverley, Kagawa, Scholes, Nani, Welbeck, Rooney.

Sir Alex Ferguson chooses to start just one of his two major signings, and it’s the Japanese playmaker Shinji Kagawa that makes his United debut. It’s a makeshift defence with Antonio Valencia and Michael Carrick filling the gaps. Robin van Persie starts on the bench.

As for the hosts, David Moyes names a familiar looking side, leaving new signing Steven Naismith on the bench.

Follow all the action as it unfolds in our Dugout Discussion chatroom, which is open and can be accessed right here.

Do you think Cleverly is a bit too steady? Doesn't seem to do anything that Scholes wouldn't do.

  I think Jelly is way overpriced when you could have Podolski for the same and Tevez/Cisse/Adebayor (if he's moved) for just a million more. So yeah but not necessarily because it's too much Everton.

Fellaini looking very selfish too. Even better ... from an FPL perspective 😉

Looking at this Everton team, I really fancy them to get loads of goals in the coming games. Unfortunately the midfielders are all looking equally likely to me. Jelavic could be the answer.

        Not yet I'll be honest, as I couldn't tell between the midfielders for potential. Pienaar is in my "girlfriend's team". Planning Ivanovic > Baines. Might go Jelavic if Graham doesn't do the business.

Man Utd are definitely preparing for games against Barcelona. You can see that they're keeping the ball on the floor all the time now, and Kagawa wants to play fast short passes all the time.
