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

    BBC suggesting the Utd game is the first relegation 6 pointer. 🙂

    Can we start lolling at Rooney captainers yet?

      Not until he skies the free kick in Fergie time.

    2. Bubz

    Damn! Didn't realise Chelsea were part of the late kick-off. Was really looking forward to their lineup

    Afternoon lads. Gonna WC this week - Di Maria or Ramsey? No other attack from those teams.

    1. The Finnisher
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Ramsey

        Cheers JOA - would prefer the (probably) more attacking Di Maria but United are a bit pants at the mo so may go with Rambo.

    "Mee" is a pretty funny name when listening to the commentary.

    Mata has played 17 games and got 7 goals for United. Admittedly he doesn't fit in the system but that isn't a bad return.

      Am still a nervous Mata owner do

    3-5-2 clearly doesn't work

      12 years, 2 months ago

      LVG doesn't want to play 352

    2. andyinasia
      12 years, 2 months ago

      No question. Ironic the Blackett and Jones are leading the baps as they're the source (with Evans) of all the bad play.

  14. Heydudes13
    12 years, 2 months ago

    So that's what Marney looks like.

    1. beric

    If Man Utd were in the Championship this season, would they even get promoted?
