People saying they might not bother watching cause a certain player isn't playing or because we'll have 3 at the back.
Go and support Chelsea or City then.This is a strong line-up regardless what formation this is.Hope to see a back four here. Think it will be Carrick at CB with blind in midfield though.You lot getting excited about the diamond may be in for a shock. Either way, regardless of formation that group of players should have no problem.
Just noticed that myself...Just hope that we get him to sign a new contract, but I really have my doubts now.5/11
Depends if people actually pump long balls in over there. They do here though.No wonder Barcelona were so shit the time he was there
Once again, could easily be 3 or 4 at the back. I'd imagine it will be 3 at the back though. Nice to see Januzaj get a chance, hope he takes it this time. Surprised Valdes doesn't play, and that Di Maria starts.Regarding Valdes, LVG probably doesn't want to rock the boat with De Gea when we're trying to keep him. Just a guess. If I'm right though, what happened to this no-nonsense coach that would make tough decisions that we were supposedly getting?
He's basically not going to play unless other options are injured. Which is a bit of a mess from a financial point of view given what was paid for him.
Haha the crazy genius!Looks like 442 with wingers9/11, thought de Gea and Carrick would sit out.
Its not even the financial thing though, hes a really good player... sigh
The Chile manager confirmed we were interested but we were concerned about his knee and so we never actually went through with the transfer.
Also, I wouldn't be going after any Spanish players, he is friends with a lot of them and won't exactly give them a good reference about LvG. Of course he might come on and get the winner.
He has been pretty much taking decisions of his own with barely any external influence by the looks of it. Not playing DDG in a cup tie against Cambridge wouldn't have rocked the boat either.It's a midtable league 2 side. Is it too much to expect a comfortable victory? We're pretty much full strength.What has herrera done to LVG?It's clearly a fecking 3-5-2. Even the United twitter account have listed the players as if it's a 3-5-2.Wanted to see Valdes :/
Christ knows, doubt it takes much tbh. If they are saying they are a physical side then that might be why. MU own blog is saying the conditions are windy and the pitch is quite treacherous, at least Ander won't get injured.I don't think the system will matter in this game. We could go 4-2-4 or 2-6-2 and should still win.
Everything you know about football ...It all goes out the window on FA Cup days. Cliche I know, but that is why the FA Cup is awesome.
Mutv say its 4 at the back.
Probably suggested we should scrap the 3-5-2.
And I'd agree if we didn't field an almost full strength lineup.If anything Herrera being left out of this particular starting XI is one of the more logical times. LvG has talked up Cambridge's physicality all week and between the two of them, in theory at least, Fellaini comes out on top in that regard.
Still agree that his lack of starts in recent weeks is rather baffling, mind.its 4-4-2. He's trying to prove a point.
Exactly. Feel sorry for the lad though because it seems there's always an excuse.A frontline of Di Maria/Falcao/Wilson.
If that doesn't have goals and pace in it thenI give up.
I already support all 3People saying they might not bother watching cause a certain player isn't playing or because we'll have 3 at the back.
Go and support Chelsea or City then.
It's Cambridge United. We should play our game, not attempt to adapt to them.
Promote this fellaI'll admit it I clicked that expecting an actual interview
Only 5 hereWho wants to bet that we still play like shit and are under the cosh for large parts of the match?.United: De Gea, Jones, Rojo, Blind, Valencia, Carrick, Fellaini, Januzaj, Di Maria, Wilson, Falcao.
Subs: Valdes, McNair, Rafael, Shaw, Fletcher, Herrera, van Persie.
