Mata Starts – Man United's Strongest XI vs Sunderland

Manchester United fell to another shocking away defeat as Swansea City defeated them 2-1 like they did in the opening game at Old Trafford.
United are in poor form and have serious threat from arch rivals Liverpool in the race of top 4 with the merseysiders having got all the momentum in 2015.
Red Devils face Sunderland at home next and it may as well be a must win game for them.
Louis van Gaal is under immense pressure after spending heavy sums to bring in new stars, the team has been average to say the least.
As far as the team news against Black Cats is concerned, star striker Robin van Persie suffered a leg injury in the last game and is likely to be out. Wilson is also out and expect Falcao to return to starting XI.
The Colombian is not in good form and must step up big time. Expect Valencia to return on the right hand side of defense as well. Mata has been mostly warming the bench and it has been baffling for the supporters. The Spaniard should start in the hole behind two strikers.
Here is Man United’s strongest XI vs Sunderland.
