Hello and welcome to live coverage of Leicester City vs The Ongoing Farce Of Wayne Rooney's Ego.

Esteban Cambiasso is making his first start for Leicester at home in the Premier League. It'll be interesting to see how much of his old talents he still has. If he's still got most of it, he's going to be excellent for Leicester.

Van Gaal has just said he is not satisfied with Wayne Rooney as a striker. Which is excellent. Finally, somebody in charge of a football club (apart from Alex Ferguson) has realised what an awful player Rooney is up front. Now, he has given Rooney the chance at number 10, and made it clear it is Rooney's opinion that is his best position. What happens when he fails there, then, as he surely will? That's right, he finally can boot the draining presence from the starting XI. Well, that's what I hope.

Louis van Gaal: "I don't think that Falcao interfered with Van Persie (against QPR) or that he interfered with Falcao. Falcao is a very good striker, I already said that when he came here in his first press conference. I like Van Persie as well - he is also a very good striker. Then we have Wayne Rooney and Adnan Januzaj, and we also have James Wilson. We have five players for the two striker positions and I have to choose.

Nigel Pearson gets his excuses in first: "United look like they have a swagger back, they have added quality. Whenever there is a change in manager you can have people who have a short-term impact.When you have someone in charge for as long as Sir Alex (Ferguson) the transition period will never be easy.They have been a huge presence within the English game for a long time. I'm sure they will reignite that at some point."
