Bettor.com analyzes which players could shine when the Reds go head-to-head with the Lions at Villa Park this weekend.
Aston Villa:
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Darren-Bent-c10358:
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 International may have had his injury problems in the last couple of months, but that hardly translates into a below-par outing on the field and thus he represents Aston Villa’s most potent attacking weapon.
With his ability to make something out of nothing, he has been a fan favourite at the helm ever since making the switch from Sunderland. However, an injury curtailed his career back in May and he was omitted from the squad that played in the European championships.
Now back, with a point to prove, he will be a major threat to United’s defence, that has been shaky in the past few weeks.
Manchester United:
Robin Van Persie:
It seems like the Dutchman simply cannot stop scoring at the moment. A summer arrival from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s side with one sensational strike
after another.
Against his former employers on the weekend, he showed that he can pounce on any chance, whether be it on his left or right. If that wasn’t enough, Van Persie further demonstrated his class after netting a wonder goal against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984.
Fergie sent on his main forward after an unexpected power outage and the player repaid his manager’s faith by scooping the ball over goalkeeper Custódio to hand his side a vital comeback
United managed to take inspiration from the potent attacker and went onto humble Braga with a 3-1 scoreline.
Praise has been ushered in for the player from all angles, but it was http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ryan-Giggs-c31985 who had the perfect description for his talents, claiming that the front-man reminded him of a certain Ruud Van Nistelrooy, who ripped defences apart for the Red Devils not
that long ago.
“They were the better team in the first half and had the better chances and it wasn't until http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380 came on that we started to play a little better. When he burst through [in the move that led to the first goal] I think everyone knew there was only
going to be one outcome.”
“I read last week that people were comparing Robin to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ruud-van-Nistelrooy-c31966 in that he used to put away chances more often than not and I think that's probably the case at the moment with Robin – his confidence is high,” added the Welshman.
With the Holland star seemingly in the form of his life, a start against Aston Villa beckons and possibly a bucket load of goals as well.
Wayne Rooney:
What a partnership Sir Alex has on his hands. In Van Persie, he has Europe’s deadliest forward, who can score on any half-chance that his fellow teammates create and in Rooney, he has a beast of a footballer, who can influence proceedings with grit, determination
and a bullishness to prove himself over and over again.
His telepathic communication with his Dutch counterpart has become the stuff of legends at the Theatre of Dreams and as time goes on, the duo will become ever more potent.
Hence, it’s prudent to warn Villa that a rout might be on the cards unless they can contain the ‘White Pele’, who goes by the name of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736.
