Preview Manchester United vs Everton: Will the red devils take revenge?

 Manchester United will be facing Everton this Sunday in a mouth watering encounter where both the sides will be eager to get 3 points. It is not the start both have wanted in this year`s premier league. United has secured only 2 wins out of 6 and has been very inconsistent. They look immensely dangerous while taking the ball forward but when they defend they show nervy signs. In the previous match against West Ham United showed a lot of compassion as a team in defense. Marcos Rojo as a central back maintains a good performance but he does spoil the play when he goes for attacking. Luke Shaw who made his debut last week in Old Trafford  has really impressed the manager with 90 minutes of hard work. The match against West Ham was very unpleasant for both the manager and the captain of the  team as Wayne Rooney was sent off in 59th minute. Van Gaal has t

Robin Van Persie can feature as captain

o go for a new captain for this match and I think non other then Robin Van Persie will be getting the honor. He did well in the match against West Ham last Saturday after Rooney was sent off. Van Persie who is currently playing his 3rd season for the red devils was also Van Gaal`s captain for Netherlands in the Brasil world cup. In the place of Wayne Rooney most likely Juan Mata will start after missing out on two consecutive  games for the red devils.

Peddy McNair will start his second successive game for United

United are suffering a poor defensive start to this season and 3 of their established central backs are injured at the moment. 19 year old Northern Irish footballer Peddy McNair was given the opportunity against West ham last weekend and he has impressed the manager quite well. Van Gaal has strong words about the lad and he is happy with the right footed defender. Undoubtedly he has to hold Romelu Lukaku from the right side but he has a better chance now to take the advantage. Luke Shaw who did well in the previous game will be one of the 4 defenders united will posses against Everton. Rafael and Marcos Rojo are the other two who can feature in the game as they were brilliant in the last home game.

Leighton Baines and Semus Coleman of Everton

Roberto Martinez`s side are famous now for their attacks with the help of fullbacks. Coleman and Baines are the two fullbacks who impressed a lot in the previous season and this year the injury of Coleman is keeping himself out of action. He can play in terms of Martinez as he mention about his key players in the press conference ahead of the clash. Leighton Baines will be boosted by the start he has made to this season. He has created more chances other then any left back this season and his assists to Lukaku is a constant threat for any team at this moment. Everton will definitely miss their duo Kevin Mirallas and James McCarthy. Mirralas was one of the scorers for the toffees in the last years premier league encounter in Goodison Park.


United may face difficulties as the injury list is not taking a pause. In the last match highly talented signing Ander Harrera suffered an injury. He has a broken rib right now and he may be out for a month. With the 3 center backs already sidelined United will be boosted by the arrival of Micheal Carrick. He is yet to start a match but he can play as a substitute. Marouane Fellaini will be in action against his old club if he will get a chance to prosper. 

The predicted line up for United will start with Robin Van Persie as captain of Manchester United. With Radamel Falcao and Mata behind him. In the 4-3-3 formation United will be depended upon one holding mid fielde
r in Daley Blind. To make a diamond formation Mata will be up front with Blind behind him. Angel Di Maria is a definite start in the left hand side with Valencia in the right side. Januzaj needs more time to prove the manager but United wont risk with Baines and Naismith in the right side, Antonio Valencia is a perfect player to partner Rafael. He is quick and strong. His crossing has been frustrating for united in the recent days but he will come good. With Harrera injured its a good chance for Valencia to prove the manager why he was given the iconic jersey no. 7 two seasons before. Louis Van Gaal will be facing a team who finished in the top half last year for the first time this season and every eye will be there as how the Dutchman will feature with his tactics.
