The Dugout Discussion – Aston Villa vs Man United

Gameweek 2 gets us up and running earlier than usual tonight, as Villa welcome United to the midlands.

Both sides opened their seasons with 1-0 wins and Tim Sherwood will be seeking home improvements, having managed just one home clean sheet at Villa Park since taking the helm. Captain Poll favourite Wayne Rooney, meanwhile, looks to improve upon a record that saw him score just once outside of Old Trafford in 2014/15.

United roll up to Villa Park for their first away game of the season having struck just 21 goals in their 19 road trips under Louis van Gaal last term, registering a shot on goal every 8 minutes. They’ll be up against a Villa rearguard that kept just four clean sheets in front of their own fans last term, shipping 25 goals – only Crystal Palace kept fewer shutouts than the midlanders.

Having failed to ignite against Spurs, Van Gaal will look to his attacking players to perform tonight, providing a test to Sherwood’s rearguard following their opening day success at Bournemouth.

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

        Guess it's a risk but Rooney was always coming out for Aguero.

        Don't see the point in waiting, Aguero seems good for points next week.

        And I can't stand Walcott not being nailed, headache each week. And he's dropping in price.

    Rooney or Benteke was a tough choice for captain. I'd take a Rooney assist still and watch Tekkers light it up on Monday.

    He was always the plan this week, glad I held...

    Rooney needs time and multiple chances to get his eye in each game and LVG's Utd simply don't allow that to happen, especially when he's playing lone striker.

    It kills me to say it but I'm going to have no issues getting rid of him come GW4.

    Also, Mike Dean seems to have been threatened with death if he books Darmian. Utterly ridiculous amount of bad challenges and professional fouls. Not even a warning yet|!?! Madness.
