Despite the playful twitter tamperings of Gary Lineker, Robin Van Persie takes his place in an unchanged and attacking United lineup for today’s early kick-off against Arsenal. The Dutchman starts, then, and wears the Fantasy armband for many as he faces his former club for the first time.

Our Dugout Discussion Chatroom is now open and available to collect all the joy and agony of this match and the day’s other six encounters, concluding with City’s visit to West Ham this evening.

The lineups from Old Trafford are predictable. Both sides remain unchanged with Sir Alex Ferguson keeping faith with Ashley Young on the flank, opting to keep Javier Hernandez in reserve, with Danny Welbeck out of the squad. As for Arsenal, they keep Theo Walcott on the leash as they put out the starting XI that struggled to break down QPR last weekend.

Man United: De Gea, Rafael, Ferdinand, Evans, Evra, Valencia, Carrick, Cleverley, Young, Rooney, van Persie

Arsenal: Mannone, Sagna, Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Santos, Arteta, Ramsey, Wilshere, Cazorla, Podolski, Giroud

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

    Suggesting RVP is gonna come off just because he took his shirt off. Come on you guys, seriously? Thats just riddiculous. Messi took his shirt off for somebody during the world cup qualifier and still plays at 2nd half. Just dont be so fpl so much, thank you.

      I have no respect for Santos or Arsenal if it doesn't punish Santos for such a disloyal move at halftime while the battle is still on. It's a traitor's act. and I don't get why at least one poster on here thinks it was an OK move-.... but you don't do that at halftime.
