The same old poor line up with the two useless aging strikers upfront and Rooney pushed into midfield. No room for Herrera or Mata again. This is beginning to frustrate me more and more each week and is getting near a David Moyes level of annoying.
Oh well atleast we will beat the worst side in the league which will convince Van Gaal to continue with this system.If someone would be kind enough to PM me a stream I'd be grateful.
Fair enough.
It is a great team, I love it, so much attacking potential.Not thrilled with the lineup but we'll still win comfortably.FFS which channel on Time Warner is showing this?The man's clueless.
There are clouds up his arse
People really think it's going to take throwing Fellaini on in the 80th minute to save us? Against Burnley? At home?
They switch from the main game just before KOHopefully Rooney scores, so that the "he hasn't had a shot on target" gang would shut the feck up.
And you think it won't?People really think it's going to take throwing Fellaini on in the 80th minute to save us? Against Burnley? At home?
In other news,
"And remember, Sam was the first manager in England to embrace ProZone - he is well into his stats. He may have dyslexia but he's not thick. I think he's a statistical genius. I think he's as good as Arsene Wenger, if not better."
Guess who?
I am dreading the game at Anfield. They could rip us to pieces.Van Gaal wont/can't drop one of the strikers, therefore he compromises to fit the RRF trio ( Rooney, Robin & Falcao) by putting Rooney in midfield and sacrificing Herrera. Hierarchy. What would be more difficult for a manager ? To have a complaining captain or worldclass striker on the bench or a newly signed midfielder with not the same aura.US AdsIs this a forum for discussing the game or a place to get illegal streams? Ffs...Anybody got a stream?
Agreed. In fact let's just win ffs so everyone can shut the hell up for at least a day or two. Sick of negative United stories.On paper looks like a comfortable game, but Burnley have tightened up their defence. 2-0What is wrong with this man? Is he that scared of RVP and Falcao that he cant leave one out? Its so obvious to see the type of simple change that is needed so why isn't it being made. This is becoming a joke.
None of the pundits will even admit one of the strikers need to be dropped, what is with that?
How else can we watch the game?Has anyone posted the Valencia vs Burnley moment gif in this thread yet?
Im convinced you will win this comfortably though, but I wont bet on it.
I don't fear that at all, those are the matches that van Gaal thrives with. It's against the lesser teams that we have struggled under him.Who's the Herrera lad on the bench?I am really happy that Januzaj is starting to get runs of games now under Van Gaal, because although he's been pretty shit so far this season I think that is largely down to the amount of time he's sat on the bench in between appearances.
But on the other hand, given the insipid team performances of late how the feck can he leave Herrera AND Mata on the bench and start RVP AND Falcao who have both been massively underperforming individually (ie spurning easy chances time and again). If he would just get a grip and swap out Falcao+RVP for Herrera+Mata, and play Rooney up front, our creativity and tempo would improve 10 fold. And unlike the other two Rooney has been really consistent in front of goal this season. He doesn't miss fecking sitters.
At least McNair gets a start over Valencia. The less he plays the better for our attacking play.Any decent streams would be welcome my way!
I still have a little faith in Van Gaal and the team so no, I don't think it will.
Some Spanish work experience lad.
My guess RVP out of loyalty and Falcao for business related interests after 'super-agent' Mendes started mouthing off. Mendes by the way, apparently gets on great with Ed Woodward.
I know what you mean mate. Maybe if that does happen it might be a wake up call to Van Gaal but I still doubt even that would make him change things.7/11 for me , my selections are getting worse.If anyone has a nice river, I'd appreciate a PMany link for the game?Feck. I changed my lineup prediction at the last minute. Removed Wilson, McNair, and Evans; put in Falcao, Valencia, and Smalling. 9/11 correct in the end. If only I'd left McNair and Evans in- Status
