    Wow! Swansea take the lead with a fine finish from Ki Sung-yueng!
    They pick that United back three apart, moving the ball from right to left as Nathan Dyer finds Ki on the edge of the box, he has plenty to do but drills home low with his left foot. This is a test...

    My Fotmob scores app is saying Siggy assist

    I dropped De Gea last night for Begovic after looking at the prospective team sheets.

    Jones is the only one of the backline that I'd have any faith in.

    I saw a Brum fan earlier on BBC saying that Blackett didn't cover himself in glory there last season.

    United still need a defender to partner Jones/Evans and a central midfielder.

    Yep have Siggy and De Gea. never expected United to keep a clean sheet with that backline so not too bothered. Hopefully thats all they concede and Mata can bag an equaliser.

    Rooney and Mata poor so far, passing lacks confidence....

    Look, lets be honest. United at home. Benching siggy was the right call.

    Lets not be second guessing this. Was a no brainer.

    Would still hurt if he went on to score though.

    Would love Siggy to score now. He'd definitely grab some price rises then.

    I'd have to disagree. It depends alot on your midfield but I was more than happy to field him when I saw that United team. Swansea may not win but I expected them to score and that's why I pulled De Gea out for Begovic last night.

    I'll look at the United defence when Evans is back and hopefully they make a signing or two.

    In fairness, that doesn't really mean anything these days.

    All going up the right hand side for United. (Jones & AJ).
    Not much coming from the other side.

    Can't believe Swansea are winning, they are playing Dyer. Looks like they could Taylor a win here. Man united are woeful, i guess that comes from playing Young players. It doesn't Mata though, Swansea could still throw United a Bony by conceding

    Bonus points currently look pretty mental, with all defenders having quite a large number of points, if this is anything to go by , defenders will again be getting a large bulk of the spoils this season.

    depends who your subs are. i benched Siggy and played Henderson instead. tough call, went for the home player. i'd say the majority of people who played Siggy have a cheaper 5th mid. anyway happy enough in that United have conceded, have Ramsey over Rooney captained too, but i'm not gonna tempt fate on that one
