AMC/FC) Wayne Rooney
Rooney should make his long awaited return from injury against Stoke this evening. He hasn’t played since New Year’s Day, but before he was sidelined, he’d scored and assisted nine goals apiece in the Premier League.
AML) Ashley Young
Young scored a screamer and assisted another against Cardiff, so will likely keep his place against Stoke. Adnan Januzaj will likely be used as an option from the bench, or Danny Welbeck could also be deployed from the left if Wayne Rooney is selected and he isn’t needed up top.
FC) Robin Van Persie
The brilliant Dutch striker returned to the lineup against Cardiff, and scored in under ten minutes of his return. If Rooney is available, the pair will reform their deadly partnership, with Juan Mata supplying them service in attacking midfield.
