Gameweek 2 match day thread

zarquon

Villa look knackered. Still a chance for Rooney to redeem himself. Dare to dream!!!!

jamesbere

Having darmian, yay. Having rooney, neigh. Having depay, Meh he might do something yet

Ziegler1988

Mata 33 BPS
Darmian 31 BPS
Shaw 28 BPS

Inspector Coptoor

Depay off
Feck sake

Ziegler1988

Darmian yellow

zarquon

Darmian YC, that'll hit his bps too

SlickRic

Despite the miss, Memphis is the best way into Utd's attack I think.

I chose ****ing JOHN O'SHEA over Damien

And? O'Shea hasn't made it last time.

If you played him over Darmian this week you can't blame anyone except you.

sheroman01

Man, a Depay goal and Rooney blank would've been so sweet! If 0.5m can be free'd up, Romero looking good.

3...2...1

Rooney receiving passes from well inside his half. Not worth 7m based on this performance.

the incredible pudding

I think Mata has been their best player. They all move the ball so slowly, he's the only one that looks like creating anything.

shineon23

I'd feel more secure having Victor Anichebe captain week rather than Rooney at this stage,:eek:

I'll still struggle to sell him before the Newcastle game.

sheroman01

Good boy Rooney, knock the ball out for a throw when you're 1v1

Ziegler1988

No chance I captain Rooney next GW on the back of that display. Going to be a tough one now, either Haz at WBA or Kane at Leicester

Scorpion Sting

Bad time to be a Rooney captainer. Luckily I went with Kane.

SlickRic

Shaw CS and Rooney blank.

Meh.

I might keep Rooney until Newcastle, but it's getting tough to justify it.

Rojiblancos

Rooney & somebody to Aguero and anybody. He's been awful the last 2 matches. Shouldn't even be in utd's team the way he's playing never mind my own.

*meant to put this in the gw3 transfer thread*

titan18

Fcuk off Rooney, don't let the door hit you on the way out

SlickRic

Just realised I have one player only tomorrow, Sebastian Coates.

A boring day in store so.

spock.

Amavi could sneak a bap despite not getting a clean sheet.
He got 3 baps last week so looks like a bonus magnet.

Really hard go sell him with Newcastle at home. Wonder will he drop in price though?

km79

the good - Darmian clean sheet
the bad- darmian yellow and loss of bonus
the ugly - Rooney

I'm keeping him for that game anyway

An Ciarraioch

Mata 3 points
Darmian & Shaw 2

Ziegler1988

Darmian, Shaw, and Smalling all within 1 BPS for the baps. Mata looks like taking the three

FutureGuy

Banked the transfer and captained Benteke. Rooney out along with Walcott. Aguero and a mid priced marvel in.

iroced

Provisional BPS

Mata 34
Darmian 29
Shaw 29
Smalling 28
Amavi :eek: 27
Januzaj 25

km79

darmian "cleared " a lot of ball to nobody at the end too
will miss out I'd say

Amavi should have got motm quality player

This Rooney no show reminds me of the main debate of this week about Rooney away poor performances at Villa Park for quite some years now... So does he have a mental blocking there or not ?

ScummyMan

Adios Rooney, hello Agueeerrrooooooooo

he also has a great record against Newcastle
sellers beware... I should know .......I could not take another minute of him in my team before the Newcastle home game after Xmas last year.....

Tomagotchye

Rooney is a disaster. He looks a complete lame duck. Dropping him for sure. Mata is the united lynchpin.

Poor start 2 from 1 player. Ah well, at least I had sense not to captain him. He loves scoring against Newcastle but I can't even be arsed leaving him in

spock.

Captain stats:
 
Rooney: 24.5%
Benteke: 16.8%
Hazard: 11.7%
Kane: 8.2% 
Aguero: 4.7%

He had no touches in tbe opposition box until the final minute. United have 3 shots on goal in 2 games.

Alfred Borden

Rooney out 100%. Kane or Benteke in, not sure yet as already have Aguero and Costa.

So captain next week then to verify the ground/team preference theory . (I'm actually owning him).

One touch, 1v1 with Guzan and he kicks it out for a throw in!

Thats my fear.

I do think that New at home is a good game for him, last chance really.

he was in my team for 3 weeks with him captain 3rd week and then leaving for aguero even if he scores a hat trick in 3rd game
it's all going to plan so far

Cypher_sounds

I hope to keep Rooney for one more gameweek. If a price droop looms that might force my hand though.

titan18

Walcott and Rooney out, most likely Aguero and Payet in

DarraghF197

I know it's been said a million times already, but I'll say it once again because it needs to be emphasised! Rooney was terrible!

Promising players: United's back four and GK; Mata; Ayew (although I only see him making good runs which doesn't do much in terms of points)

In other news, anyone see that goal by San Jose in the Supercopa from the half way line?!

Ziegler1988

After ESP
Mata 3
Darmian 2
Shaw, Smalling 1

Darmian is proving to be quite the bap whore

km79

esp added
mata 3
darmian 2
Shaw smalling 1

darmian legend!
