Relegation fodder UTD take on table toppers Villa. If UTD lose they go down, If Villa win they stay 5th
Rooney in for Rashford with Martial left wing. Rooney to score a tap-in and waltz into the England squad. 1-1
I would have called this magnificent matchday thread The Villa vs The Attila but it wasnt to be Interesting Fact: Aston Villa are one of only 7 clubs to have remained in the Prem since its inception. They are also the second longest team to have spent in the league's top flight division (105 yrs). Two magnificent records... long may they continue
I would have called it The Thrilla against the Villa. But I realised our football would get me done under the Trade Descriptions Act.
I'm keen to see whether Norwich win or lose beforehand to see what chance we have of Villa causing us an upset. Yep, things really are that bad
I thought he'd play RW. Please please don't tell me he's going to play Mata on the RW and Rooney as the Nmbr 10? Surely, it would make more sense to have Rooney upfront, Mata at 10, and Rashford on the RW?
