DEFEND, DEFEND, DEFEND DEFEND DEFENDAnyone but Blind...
Yeah. Blind is dropping into a back three so we have the sum total of no actual ball playing midfielders in the middle of the park and two centre backs charged with advancing our attacks down the wings....................genius.Evans now injuring our players.How the feck did di Maria mange to concede a corner there..Falcao isn't worth anywhere near the money they want. He can't even trap and hold a ball up.Rooney is being asked to dictate our games and it just doesn't work. He is a fantastic player, but there is a reason only a handful of players can do it on their own.LvG should change the tactical instructions from "pass into space" to "pass to feet". Every time we play a pass ahead of our strikers we end up losing it.Jonny Evans is just a disaster now... Nothing like the player he was two years ago.It wasn't Evans that caught him you muppetLvG should take one white board and write thousand times with a marker:
Rooney is not a midfielder.
Herrera and Mata on the bench and Rooney in midfield, it's beyond ridiculous.So not satisfied with already being a liability on the pitch, Jonny Evans has now begun to put his team-mates out of the game too!McNair looks like wants to be somewhere else.So now or only midfielder is gone.Evans doing a Jones.
Knew I saw it (does have some white type but still positive):
really? I think we have been terrible, but maybe he meant in terms of both teams!
We have no midfielders on the pitch nowEvans taking out BlindWe look like a bunch of mugs on this pitch, the formation is terrible, we look as scared and toothless as last season
This, it's just not his bag.26 min
Yellow card for Burnley
From the corner United break with Di Maria and Kightly cynically takes him down as he races towards the last defender.
What has the pitch got to do with it?
Kightly is quick!
Trouble is, if someone else gets injured Herrera and Mata will never get on.Did anyone really expect any different after seeing the team shit?Great pace from ADM
It really is as most of the time it was mistakes rather than whatever this rubbish is.
People are saying he deserves the benefit of the doubt because of his experience and reputation but surely that should mean we judge him harder than the the inexperienced guy we all wanted out?This is not looking encouraging at all. Burnley could have scored a couple more already. LvG needs to start questioning himself. Hopefully Woody is seeing all this.McNairs getting toasted a bit on the right.
Unfortunate typo ...I hope
And RVP is at the table next to him.Sorry but I don't understand how anyone can look at our midfield right now and dare call it one. There's Blind and......thats it, there is ZERO tactical balance, he's got some fecking cheek to complain about balance when its self inflicted.
I'd be more worried about us being outplayed by Burnley at home than outsung.Carrick's fecking misseddid Evans injury Blind? fecking cock!27 min
United waste the free-kick and Burnley flood forward on the counter attack. United manage to clear but are at sixes and sevens at the back.
I don't even think that's the major issue. Its the fact we have no midfield to give them any protection at all. Burnley just go from Defense to attack in 1 ball and the defense have no time to set themselves. Although I wouldn't argue that are defense is poor, Evans is shocking.I think I prefer 5-3-2Absolutely woefulAwful team to watch piss off LVG- Status
