Have it occurred to anyone that the sacrifice van gaal made in pre season and the first few matches of 3-5-2 has generate a bit of positivity recently? Granted, it was a total disaster then, but in hindsight it did give us some flexibility in choosing a formation.
Now we are able to play with a few formations, even though not totally comfortable in them, but this may give us an edge going forward. Also we can accommodate injuries better like we'd seen in the arsenal game. We may not be as lucky with a 4-4-2 consisting of youngsters and wingers at the back. This is also what is different from the SAF era and definitely an upgrade from Moyes.
And to put it in perspective, Liverpool fans are complaining about Brendan 4-3-3, whereby when it fails, there is no plan b. We are somehow fortunate to have plan b plan c and maybe even plan d because of what we have done in preseason.
Look hard enough, and you may be able to find a silver lining in every disaster.
