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

    I'm really going to be playing catch up already in my ML with my faith in United 🙁

    Problem is, do I ditch Mata, since he's the one decent looking option in the team for Payet next week, or hold since he has delivered for me?

    Depay and Rooney have been awful. Darmian solid, Blind very good. That Geueye fella has been good too.

    The only moments of brief happiness i have enjoyed in GW1 and GW2 so far have been Depay and Sterling running in on goal.

        Think of the scenes here when U.S. Bertrand tadic and Pelle owners watched a 8-0 win hours after a Aguero captain 4 goaler.

        This will be better.

    If either Hazard or Fabregas blanks against Man City who would get rid of first if you had those two as well as Rooney

    Any ideas would be welcomed

    I am liking Mata tonight.

    From what I eve seen on other sites Walcott may drop in value tonight (can that happen at the beginning of a game week before he has played?)

    is mata a viable?

      Yes, people were worried originally about how nailed he would be but he is clearly United's most consistent player at the mo and has creativity
