The Dugout Discussion – United v Everton

Sunday gets underway with a noon kick-off at Old Trafford as United prepare to take on Everton. The Toffees registered back-to-back wins over their hosts last season, though with Louis van Gaal at the helm, the Red Devils are slowly starting to find their feet and go in search of a third successive home win this afternoon.

With Wayne Rooney suspended, Van Gaal – as expected – hands Juan Mata the role in “the hole”, while Antonio Valencia replaces the injured Ander Herrera in one of only two changes by the Dutchman. Up top, Robin van Persie goes in search of a third successive strike and strike partner Radamel Falcao is still looking for his first goal since arriving on loan from Monaco.

The likes of Seamus Coleman, Sylvain Distin and James McCarthy all miss out for Everton, though Steven Pienaar returns to the XI, as Roberto Martinez rolls out a 4-2-3-1, with the South African joining Steven Naismith and Aiden McGeady in the attacking midfield three behind Romelu Lukaku.

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

          it is taking a chance.

          He is taking a chance (gambling) by shooting (not taking a chance in the clinical sense of finishing).

          If a player consistently drills shots into the box (lampard?) he'll get breaks.

          Yaya was a monster, I never went in for him until the end of the season because he was taking chances the other way. Incredibly clinical.

        people get a bit lucky with miss-hit goals, and an assist is always somewhat fortunate because you're relying on the player receiving the ball to actually take the chance.

        This is why i put forward the argument the other week, that ADM will be more 'lucky' simply because the quality of the finishers in the team combined with the amount of chances he is willing to take (shooting at goal from distance, hitting free kicks, corners crosses into the box).

        Its luck, to a degree, but it is also expected.

    hmm Was thinking of Naismith > Welbeck but he's got back to scoring plus everton has good fixtures in the next 5.

    Arsenal has good fixtures in the next 4.

    Keep Naismith?
