Saturday’s afternoon action is focused mainly on the foot of the table as the likes of Fulham, Hull, West Brom and Aston Villa all face crunchy fixtures. The quartet of three o’clock kick-offs will do their best to hold our attention, before our focus switches to Old Trafford as a desperate Norwich arrive to take on Ryan Giggs’ United.

It has to be said, Fantasy talent is at premium and perhaps limited to Christian Eriksen’s display at Stoke and Wilfried Bony’s quest for further goals at home to Villa. In the main, we’ll save our energies for the tea-time clash as we get to assess the impact of David Moyes’ departure and the “Giggs’ effect” on the Red Devils. With a double fixture looming in Gameweek 37, the Old Trafford teamsheet will be of keen interest, as will the performance from United’s key attacking assets.

Full details of the day’s starting lineups can be found via our Twitter feed, while the Dugout Discussion chatroom remains opens for those looking to indulge in some real-time banter.

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

    Maybe Giggs should actually play himself, at least then the team would be motivated to score so he could continue his streak

    Mata on the bench?!

    Fellaini left at home?!

    That second on isn't so much of a biggie.

      you could argue that this season he is playing as manager, therefore, the scoring streak is still perfect.

        Yeah Cleverley and Rio are the most reliable players going. Vidic is ditching United at the end of the season, no need to play him, there are younger lads willing to play and learn. Gives Welbeck his way because he had a hissy fit about not playing more and makes a statement by benching or dropping any of the players that Moyes bought or brought up to the senior team.

      Moyes would have fellaini and Mata on there. This is 1000000% ferguson teamsheet. Clev and Welbeck back in, both guys who Fergie loved. Soliditi in the backlike and Jones at Rb

      Best united team IMO

    If any other club with a failed season sacked their manager in April, caution with their players would be the only way to proceed. We Mata owners should not be surprised, we knew the risks.
