Even the strongest Scottish ogres injure hamstrings sometimes
Wayne Rooney is doubtful for United's match Saturday against Aston Villa with a hamstring problem. He did not feature today in the Champions League against Wolfsburg.
And while United have a massive defensive injury crisis, I think the loss of Rooney for a game or two is not the end of the world.

Why are you celebrating? You lack pace and are prone to senseless bookings
Cheap, cheap, and in great form. And well, cheap.
That was the story with Sunderland studs throughout most of the fall and the first few months of the Premier League season.
Darren Bent was a no-brainer from the start of the season (moving over from Tottenham with the price tag of a 4th choice striker), Michael Turner looked irresistible (moving over from Hull with a low price tag), and Andy Reid lost a bunch of weight.

He doesn't celebrate Christmas, he just celebrates scoring big goals
The Funny Feeling Friday selection has historically been reserved for those unpopular, under the radar, or out of form players who we believe will break out in the short term, so Yossi Benayoun, at 9% owned in the Fantasy Premier League game, is a unique selection.
