Take off the Belgians and put on the Spaniards please.
I don't expect world class performances from him every week, but I do expect him to be able to influence the game every week and I think he's far more likely to do that from a central position. He can go either side of a player when in there, while on either wing he can usually only go one way. (Outside when out left, inside when out right)Though I agree he's better centrally, this argument is also a bit of a cop out.
I think people who expected QPR-esque performances every week (or anything like that) are in for a shock, regardless of where he plays.
Doesn't matter if we had 8 if they were dangerous ones.To be fair they have had 1 shot but we have had 8.
That's the real problem of all our shots only Shaw's really came close to goal and we didn't create a single clear cut chance in the first half at all.Doesn't matter if we had 8 if they were dangerous ones.
Probably not an idiot since he's been manager of Barca, Bayern, Ajax, Manchester United, plus all the trophies he's won and paved the success for others. Not stubborn either considering how many changes he's already made this year. Don't think there's much he can do if either the players aren't playing the way he wants, or if he's trying to find the right balance still.I for one am beginning to question his tactical nous.
Is he really a tactical genius or is he the manager of man utd?
Janujaz should be a number 10 and nothing else. He just keeps putting him on the wing and Janujaz keeps flopping.
Di Maria is ineffective on the wing. At least put him back centrally so we can see whether it is position or form
Di Maria is still, STILL, taking corners.
Is van Gaal an idiot? Or is he just too stubborn to change things
He had Ronaldo and Bale running off the ball. Compare that with RVP and Rooney.Perhaps he's used to playing only with Real Madrid class talent, not the rubbish that's been shown
---------------DDG------------I keep beating on this drum but Rooney offers nothing as a a midfielder. First touch and passing simply aren't good enough. Striker or bust.
I was just pointing out you overrated Palace in the first half.Doesn't matter if we had 8 if they were dangerous ones.
The slope could be stuffing him up.How can his free kicks be consistently.amazing but corners consistently shite? I genuinely don't understand
