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

    3. Simon69

  27. Beautiful Game
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Rooney has forgotten how to be a striker or what a striker does.... And united have forgotten how to play... Shame!!!

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      United have learnt the art of the 1-0 again

    2. Simon69
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Still winning and haven't conceded though.

  28. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Allegedly meant to be England's best player, Rooney is very worrying!.

  29. Costa in Wengerland
    • 14 Years

    1. Danstoke82
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Apparently so.

      I'm very tempted to ship Mert for him to free up funds elsewhere.

    2. owls on the up
