As Wayne Rooney celebrates a fantastic match winning hat-trick against West Ham, he will also be waiting to hear his fate after the FA decides whether they will punish his despicable outburst.
After saving a match that was pivotal in bolstering Manchester United's title challenge, Rooney appeared on camera and screamed f*** you - an outburst that ruined what was a stunning performance from England's talisman.

Aston Villa Vs. Arsenal: Arsenal Preview
Arsenal travel to Aston Villa tomorrow to try and steady themselves and return to winning ways. The Gunners have been shaky of late and their record of late shows it. They have lost 4 of their last 6 games in all competitions, something which needs to be rectified if they wish pundits to recognize them as serious title challengers once again. Having lost last weekend's league match against Tottenham and their midweek champions league fixture against Braga it is pertinent that Arsenal win against Villa to restore confidence ahead of the next crucial champion's league matchup against Partizan Belgrade. The gunner's must win to progress to the knockout phases; anything less and their future would depend on the outcome of the other group fixture.

Arsenal vs. Aston Villa: Villa Preview
Aston Villa plays host to Arsenal at Villa Park this weekend, and will be longing for crucial points that could vault them into the top half of the table. An injury depleted Villa side will be relieved by the return of both John Carew and James Collins from calf injuries, respectively. However, history is not on Villa’s side; The Midlands club has claimed only one victory in its previous 28 league clashes with the Gunners. One of the most interesting storylines ahead of the matchup is Frenchman Robert Pires’ first fixture against the team he served so well from 2000 to 2006. The 37-year-old had a prolific goal scoring record of 84 tallied in 284 total appearances for the North London club. It will certainly be intriguing to see if Pires can conjure up one last moment of magic, even if it be across the pitch from the white and red.

Arsenal vs Sporting Braga: Preview

Reeling after its shock second half collapse against Tottenham, Arsenal looks to book its passage into the knockout stages of the Champions League with a win on match-day five five against Sporting Braga. Arsenal thrashed Braga 6-nil back in September, but will be lacking lots of offensive firepower; in particular, the absences of Robin Van Persie and Andrey Arshavin will be sorely missed. Masterful tactician, Arsene Wenger, has warned his troops not to be complacent ahead of the clash with the Portuguese outfit as they were when they dropped points against former striker Eduardo and Shakhtar Donetsk a fortnight ago. Arsenal heads into a particularly challenging stretch of its season as the winter break approaches, and the crucial three points and a spot in the last 16 gained from a victory today would surely ease Wenger’s mind.
