Louis van Gaal.... here is my bank account.. please send me money for my destroyed mouse and laptop display

 

[KYcinco]

Carvalho is needed

 

[Virror]

we play 352 so that Mata and RVP can both play.. and they are our worst players at the moment..

 

[Mesutargie]

Why do we have to pay the highest wage for Rooney?

 

[REJE]

Is anyone surprised? We attack with 3 players at most, our cm's and 'wingers' don't move. I've been saying this for the past few weeks, nothing will change whilst we use 3-5-2 and rely on attacking through the middle. Using Di Maria as a CM is a mistake, nothing happens out wide so having Xavi & Iniesta would do us no good.

 

[Fully Fledged]

Shambolic at the back no real dynamism up front. ADM was the only player to come out of that with any real credit.

 

[Ekeke]

He was better than all our players bar Phil Jones and AdM, to be honest.

Even if that was true, which it isnt because even Young had more success down his side than Valencia did, then that would put him as 3rd and not man of the match

 

[Alan Partridge]

Valencia's a fcking joke! All he do is smash the ball in hard provided there are no defenders near otherwise he just thumps it into their shins.

 

[siw2007]

Still rubbish. The clean sheet was nice for the young defenders but really disappointed that we looked clueless going forwards despite the late barrage. At least we got a point as apposed to a loss like last ti,e we played Burnley at Turf Moor.

I wonder who is coming back after international break. Surely Shaw, Herrera and Blind will be an improvement on what we are playing now.

 

[)_(]

Everyone is criticising Valencia. But it was only him who created anything.

In what world did Valencia create anything? You don't win anything in football for most crosses into defenders.

 

[Offside]

Please God change the formation. A formation that allows shite defenders to hoof the ball and dogshit wingers to piss around. We need to change it and put Di Maria on the wing, Valencia and Young and diabolical.

Plus, I've never seen a team so shit on corners.

 

[Dé jonge god]

3-5-2 isn't working, and I don't think it will work. It won't change either in all likeliness knowing how stubborn Van Gaal is. The only way he'll consider it is once players start asking for something different.

 

[Scottyboy08]

We didn't get to the byline, it was a joke, we are playing BURNLEY!! We should be smashing them! I could understand if they was Parking the bus but they wasn't!

 

[fedup52]

LVG may be an individual with a large personality and a surfeit of confidence but he sure as shit hasn't managed to transmit these qualities to the team - any of them. I had such high hopes too!

Its 3 games , give him 3 years . That is how long it will take it to replace the mess that is Man Utd . I wonder whose idea it was to make Rooney captain , somebody in the marketing dept no doubt

 

[PSingh]

Awful, not sure how LvG expects 352 to work when the most important bit of the formation(wing backs) are absolutely shit!

Valencia at right wing back is a disaster, a wing back needs to be able to meet his man in a one on one situation and we know Valencia can't do that.

 

[Rafabio]

Would you want moyes back

He's just saying Moyes wasn't the problem, that doesn't equate to bring back Moyes.

 

[MadeOfStone]

Refs are taking revenge for all fergie's lashings.

 

[Marching]

Im sorry but im starting having doubts about LVG...

Don't be daft.

 

[Scottyboy08]

Please God change the formation. A formation that allows shite defenders to hoof the ball and dogshit wingers to piss around. We need to change it and put Di Maria on the wing, Valencia and Young and diabolical.

You could not be more right

 

[Mr. Ant]

This 3-5-2 won't work with Valencia and Young, they're both shit and cowards.

 

[minoo-utd]

Our star names ( Mata-Rooney-Van Persi) have been so poor, the ones who should have lifted the team, they are lost and awful.

 

[GRon]

we play 352 so that Mata and RVP can both play.. and they are our worst players at the moment..

May not be our worst (Evans would probably get that title), but close enough.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

when voting for Man of the Match, I really wonder sometimes if the voter really watches the game, FFS YOUNG!!!

 

[Juansar_07]

We need to have 'Culprit of the match' as well in the polls.

 

[Smithy89]

Dross.

 

[Shui_utd]

Until LvG decides to drop one of RVP, Rooney and Mata, I fail to see how things can "click" for us.
Yes Mata etc. is too good to be excluded in the starting line-up, but that does not mean we should have 11 Mata's playing on the pitch. Keeping a world class player on the pitch for the sake of it only does well in the world of FIFA video game.

 

[revel911]

my point is that this burnley team will struggle to pick up 30 points this year. They are garbage. If the team we put out today can't beat a team that will finish bottom we have got more problems than a few players coming back from injury.

A few? It's half our team and pretty much the entire center of the pitch where we are getting dominated. It changes everything.

 

[arnie_ni]

A wing back that can beat his man 1 v 1 and cross the ball would make a hell of a difference

 

[minoo-utd]

So lads LVG out before it's too late or what?

 

[Alan Partridge]

Hopefully with Blind coming in and carrick and herrera coming back we can change to a 4-3-3 and the likes of Valencia, Young, Anderson etc can feck off for good!

 

[MadeOfStone]

Feel sad for di Maria he was actually let down by his inept teammates

 

[LazyBones]

RVP 24million
Rooney 28million
Mata 37million
DiMaria 60million
4 players 149million
0 goals, 3 shots, against Burnley

 

[XdanielredX]

Missed the game as I was at a gig and come back to see same old same old....

/sigh

 

[GRon]

That actually shows you the number of non United supporters on the forum.

 

[scholesboot]

So lads LVG out before it's too late or what?

I hope you're taking the p#ss

 

[Scottyboy08]

Please play 433 it will change our whole play completely, januzaj and dm7 on the wings with ONE of RVP and rooney

 

[KYcinco]

You can blame Valencia all you want but Mata and Rooney should of stayed home,way too slow for our "intended" play

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Can the mods make it possible to rate players with a 0?

I wish it would. It was fighting with me when I tried to do it.

 

[Blue always red]

Mata gaining serious ground on TClev, Fellaini and Fletch

The difference is we paid 37 million specifically for Mata's creative ability. Fletch and Clev were free and Fellaini is Fellaini.

 

[Berbaclass]

McManaman making a few good points IMO.

 

[diarm]

wow that was frustrating.

i see lots of people having a go at blackett for the long balls but i really can't see what option he had?
when our defense have the ball (which feels like all the time because our wingbacks and fletcher don't pass forwards), there is nobody coming to them as the option. there is no one looking for space, making themselves available or looking like they want the ball.

how many times do you see a defender spend 2,3 or even 4 seconds looking for a pass before either:

a) pumping it long
or
b) making a mistake under pressure.

if blind is coming in to sit deep as the 'third quarterback" like he did last year at ajax then he can't get here soon enough.

 

[Fully Fledged]

Rooney is like a fecking donkey.

His first touch is woeful for a player of his supposed ability. RVP is a shadow of the player he was two seasons ago.

 

[Offside]

Having 3 at the back doesn't work, just means there is 1 extra tool to piss around and make sure the forwards see none of the ball.

 

[red_devil83]

At least we got a 1st clean sheet!
