Yes the only positive from this game, but yea 1 point from 2 game is an improvement atmBack 3 were really good second half, Blackett especially.
Indeed. I think it's best we have these type of performances now. Rather have them now than in September/October when we can't do anything to resolve them. The start of the season is a wash out, i'm not really expecting much because we need to give LvG, the squad and his signings time to gell.This no quick fix here, I think people need to start facing that reality.
Rooney can only be better than Cleverley in midfield. I just don't know if Tom is ever going to get back on track. But he continues to look a shell of a player.No, it doesn't. He's awful there. Like Cleverley awful. His entire MO, when in midfield, is just to spike it out to Valencia. Which is his thing when he's playing as a striker, but when he's in midfield he gets the ball more often, and it becomes even more infuriating.
Valencia and Young are the illuminati, they seem to be untouchable!- Rooney RVP Mata are closer to our three biggest problems than our three best players
- Welbeck needs to start
- I wouldn't mind selling all of our central midfielders
- Three managers seem to think because Valencia and Young can't attack they are good defensively
Valencia did very well defensively and he's done a job at RB before.- Rooney RVP Mata are closer to our three biggest problems than our three best players

Who would you have played in place of them? No one can seem to answer thisValencia and Young are the illuminati, they seem to be untouchable!
In this formation we lack any other quality fit players. I expect Rafael / Shaw to replace them when fit. Even Rojo could take his place too.Valencia and Young are the illuminati, they seem to be untouchable!
For his sake Cleverley needs to go somewhere else. He is just not United material.Rooney can only be better than Cleverley in midfield. I just don't know if Tom is ever going to get back on track. But he continues to look a shell of a player.
So are Sunderland. Our vastly superior attack should have been enough to tip the balance. The fact it didn't shows that there are deeper issues.It's not the system, not the lack of fight or heart. Just a genuine lack of quality. In midfield and at the back we are simply mid-table.
True, but he still looks a bit shaky and I worry about us putting so much pressure on these young shoulders when things are so difficult at the moment. They should have the chance to phase into the team rather than being at the centre of a United defence which is (rightly) getting slated. I'd like to see Blackett continue to get minutes, but regular starting level is a tall ask at the moment.Rojo will displace Blackett and I don't think he should. Blackett has been one of our better players so far.
He's Championship material, though I doubt Fulham would want to bench any of their players for him.For his sake Cleverley needs to go somewhere else. He is just not United material.
You need to make a thread on these three point. I wholeheartdly agree. In particular that Rooney, Mata and Rvp seems close to be our biggest problem than our three best player.- Rooney RVP Mata are closer to our three biggest problems than our three best players
