Sunday’s tea-time kick-off pits two unbeaten sides together, as Swansea City welcome Manchester United to the Liberty Stadium. The Swans recorded a comfortable 2-0 win over Newcastle United in their last home match-up but now face a United unit that’s yet to concede a goal this term.

Garry Monk’s new-look attack has carved through the opposition with consummate ease, placing second for attempts (56) and joint-first for big chances (eight) and shots on target (24). This forward impetus has been balanced by a rigidity at the back, as evidenced by the fact they’ve conceded the fewest shots inside the box (11) of any side.

As for the Red Devils, they’ve limited their opponents to just 22 shots and one big chance in three match-ups. Having kicked off the campaign with back-to-back 1-0 wins, they’ve done just enough on the attacking front, ranking in the bottom half for shots inside the box (19) and shots on target (11).

      They looked good until the equaliser, just need more attacking options to be more ruthless

    Gomis onto 2 bps... Unlikely to stay there

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Why?

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Winning goal may still be added.

    3. RSe
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Could have +3 for winning goal?

    4. Zareos
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Not long left, he might.

    5. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Quite likely IMO.

    6. Breadbin

      Here's Chris with the shipping forecast.

    7. Louis
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Winning goal bps to be added?

    8. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Ooo 3bps for winning goal changes everything.

      Super.

  3. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    United supporters should be happy. They had been lucky up to this point anyway and this should trigger a new signing up front.

  4. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Just give Man City the trophy and cancel the rest of the season please

    1. For Fuchs Sake
      • 16 Years

    1. Breadbin
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

        • 12 Years

    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    United have a bottomless pit.

    Yet they have Fellaini playing as a second striker and Daley Blind playing centre back.

    It's laughable really.

    1. 4vets
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      *United are a bottomless pit.

    2. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

    How does Rooney not at least shoot from there

    1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Wenger shouted it wasn't good enough a chance. Should've passed it.

  27. HVT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Awey or Pedro?

    1. Del Griffith
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      when u consider the price differnece, Ayew

    2. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Form player.

    3. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Not sure! You could probably make a case for both.

    4. Alan Hansen's Emu
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      I took Ayew out for Pedro this week.

      A litre gutted to say te least.

      1. Reedy
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

    Heart in mouth with Williams there after Jenkinson last week

  29. Bucky Barnes
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    However many touches need to be taken before firing a shot off Rooney takes one more and ultimately gets the ball taken off him

  30. Punty
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Lol.. rooney is playing with 2000ms latency

    1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
