As in injuredAs in skint or … back-mountain?
I don't know why so many people have such a downer on Romero. He is yet to make anything approaching a notable mistake. He's the best Argentina has to offer and they made the WC Final.
Fair play to him.I would replace Rooney for Chicharito in the 2nd half, his first touch can't be any worse than Our captain.Anyone who plays up front for us does shit all. If it's not Rooney it was Falcao, if not Falcao it was van Persie. It's a problem with the system.
We might as well take Rooney off and putting another midfielder on for all he's doing.
Depay, maybe in the long term but I wouldn't have due to him coming to a new league. I thought he'd be eased in but he's been dropped in and struggled really.
Rooney is a comical error. He's playing a get out of the way of everyone else and occupy the CB's role. He won't score many this season. Certainly not a FF type role.
Yeah, Luke has bossed it.My word rooney is finished. What a shameWe need Klopp, he'll give us freedom to attack.Have Villa even had a shot on goal?Well it looks that until players learn to play possession football in this 4-2-3-1,4-4-1-1 or 4-4-2 w/e bs formation,LvG can forget on possession,which is funny.Went to shit after the goal. We aren't able to properly play the ball out of defense. Schneiderlin has been a bit dissapointing so far. Want to see Bastian asap.Wayne Rooney isn't going to get 10 goals this season.We've got the lead at least but I'd like to see us pick up that form that led up to the goal. We seemed to drop off afterwards unfortunately.
Darmian has been excellent as well.Rooney looks like the worst player on the pitch. Just getting bossed by every defender and struggling badly with his control and passing.
Defence looks very solid again. Smalling is a wall.
15 mins of the USPGASolid half.
Villa there for the taking. They have offered nothing.
We have been controlled in spells but sloppy in others, maybe an early season thing.
Darmian defensively good. Shaw been decent. Januzaj looks good in the box but lost it a few times, well taken goal. Rooney looks off the boil, getting worried about him. Depay looks like he can do something unreal any minute.
There is always someone who has to take it too far.Dreadful stuff. The attacking options available to Van Gaal are abysmal.
Yeah, however I really think Louis fears the same as last season. I really believe that in 5 or so games the team will gel and the entertainment will come. For now the priority is grinding points.
Rooney's first touch is abysmal. It doesnt have to do anything with the system...Darmian is class, very solid.
Can't read the White text on my phone.Convoluted and unnecessary, but not deep!
Got a run-out of Walter White quotes in front of me that I'm using for a job I'm working on!Schneiderlin = midfield
Nope. They really are there for the taken.
You and me too mate. You and me too.
Me as well. They better step their game up and produce something. It's getting frustrating.Rooney needs to sharpen up. Terrible half from him.We've played well. Little complainants in a tight away game.Half time came at the right time to be honest. We looked to have lost a bit of focus and Villa were growing. Now let's regroup and more of the same. We are threatening and looking very solid at the back. Also worth remembering that this is an away game so its good to be so solid. Our fullbacks are amazing! Defensively, easily the best duo in the league.Good. Top of the Friday League.
Also, thanks goes to Mike Dean, that was nice of him.Btw: Rooney getting over 20 goals this season? You are having a laughWould Hernandez be a good player to bring on now? Surely he can offer more than Rooney?good first 45. Possession on the ball and goal up. was Romero even tested?
Yeah, that makes more senseDelighted with the goal but extra pleased for Adnan. Been active first 45 min but bullied off the ball too many times by Villa players and Dean. The assist shows us why Mata is undroppable despite not tearing it up. Shame about Rooney again, hopefully he finds his old self again so we can grab a couple more goals.All that's missing is a link to the forwards, one of the front four needs to drop in and pick the ball up, there's a huge Ander Herrera shaped hole there.Total control. Interestingly it is Carrick and schneidy slowing it down after the goal. Before that we had more speed. Mata is more effective when he is floating. Depay trying too hard.15 mins of the USPGA
Just wait until Monty is on commentary...2nd half changes bring Herrera on to add a little more creative play. Bastian to gain more control.Good goal and performance by Januzaj and our defenders haven't been half bad either. Rooney and Memphis however have been poor. Schneiderlin hasn't been great either.- Status
