MANCHESTER UNITED MISSING THREE BUT VIDIC RETURNS FOR EVERTON

By Football Talk.

Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney returns to former club Everton on Saturday in red-hot form as he aims to fire United back to the top of the Premier League table.

All eyes will be on Rooney, who scored two goals against AC Milan in mid-week taking him past the 30 goal mark for the first time in his career, to see if the former Everton forward can continue his impressive scoring streak that has seen him score 13 goals in his last 14 games. Victory would see United overtake Chelsea who play Man City on Sunday.

Sir Alex Ferguson will be wary though as David Moyes men have been in impressive form themselves  recently including beating Chelsea 2-1 last week. However, Goodison Park has been a favourite venue for the champions, claiming 13 victories there during the Premier League era.
