Anyone taken or about to take a punt on him?

I know rotation is a factor but he seems to be playing well ay the moment and offering good service for Rooney.

Now with a probable vacancy due to Jones getting elbowed by that American geezer Dempsey, Valencia is really tempting esp. with his latest hauls & fixtures but just nervous with rotation and possibly being drafted back to full back. Oh bloody decisions.

Could get Roonpig but some ManUtd fans reckon he may fall back into the middle of the park.

Oh Dempsey you Yankee git!!!

If Jones is injured he will prob go to RB. So not that appealing.

Otherwise would be good with Young injured

It is a tricky one, that's for sure. I think the Jones outcome will make things a lot clearer.

Raphael was on the bench last night, so maybe he could play RB for the next couple of games with Smalling & Evans CB?.

With Young out, will SAF play Park RM instead of Valencia, with Valencia at RB?

Need to downgrade VDV seriously tempted by Valencia given his hauls lately and Utds fixtures, he would rotate with SJP - who i cant see getting much time as he tends to be the solid choice - for tougher/tighter fixtures cant see him playing against Wigan or Blackburn. The only thing is if he moves to defence, but then Rafeal now seems fit and optimistic news on Jones. I think he might be worth the gamble hes a machine given game time and is in form. He also looks hungry and importantly fresh.

Other alternatives are Bale and Mata, but arent really going to add anything to my squad - cant be relied on for their outlay either for me, i can see a lot downgrading if Valencia takes of as well.

Ive almost convinced myself here.

Took a hit and brought Nani in instead, called playing it safe I guess.

I'd love to have him, but Evans, Jones and Nani are must haves so unfortunately that's my MU quota filled.

Brought him in, in the end, i have a strong midfeild anyway so if hes rotated, my other 4 midfielders i would happily and have started with most game weeks - so its worth the punt - with his fixtures/form.

So, those who rolled the dice are grinners this week.

Is he the real deal, or fool's gold? I still can't help thinking he's a rotation risk, or otherwise a chance to get shoved back to wingback. :?

He was shoved back to wing back yesterday! He played right back. I was gonna bring him in this week but was concerned about him playing right back. So i was right in one way but he still goes and gets a goal and an assist and probably bonus points.

He pretty much plays as a wing back, so not much difference.
