I happen to like the man of the match markets and there's exceptional value in this Sunday's Carling Cup final.
The obvious choice?
Wayne Rooney is on fire for Manchester United and will be desperate to lift some more silverware.
He's rightly favourite but Paddy Power's 9/2 is certainly more than backable.
As a fall-back option how about Darren Fletcher at a ludicrously big 18/1 with Ladbrokes?
The Scottish workhorse is usually the man for the big occasion and will stamp his influence on the game.
For those who feel Villa can win it, James Milner is their favourite which is different to argue against.
But every Manchester United fan knows Brad Friedel is the Red Devils' nemesis.
If he gets the nod ahead of Brad Guzan, who has been preferred in the cup games this term by Martin O'Neill, a third bet on this market is possible at 16/1 with Paddy Power and Ladbrokes.
