The Dugout Discussion – Burnley Vs Man United

2,600 Comments
Share

Gameweek 3 gets underway with a lunchtime encounter between Burnley and troubled United. Having lost their first two matches, the Clarets are desperate to get points on the board and will certainly be buoyed by the current form of today’s opponents, as Louis van Gaal’s side stumble from one poor result to another.

With Angel di Maria poised to make his debut for the visitors, though, Fantasy owners of United’s attackers have a renewed sense of optimism for the Turf Moor meet. Captain Poll favourite Wayne Rooney, Juan Mata and Robin van Persie are all more than capable of delivering in emphatic fashion and could be set to benefit from the Argentine’s arrival.

Following this one, we have five matches to savour at 3pm before Everton host Chelsea in the evening kick-off at Goodison.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Watching United almost reminds me of watching England, possession for possessions sake, until someone gets bored and plays a long ball. No real pace or anything about it.

    Have been watching footie for about 20 years now, and I honesty think that Andy Cole was better then Wayne Rooney.

    Andy Cole only got a handful of caps. Rooney has almost 100.

    This is the problem with English football

      United need someone who can lead that defence. They look like Brazil without Thiago Silva against Germany atm. Need to get a player like Vlaar in who can control them.
