Maybe fullbacks and Di Maria can provide the width...God I can't wait.de Gea
Jones-Smalling-Rojo
Valencia-Blind-Herrera-Young
Di Maria
Rooney (C
)-Falcao
We'll lose 1-5 after a hattrick produced by that donkey Zamora
A 4-4-2 employing 2 narrower wingers is a good shout once Hererra and Blind are comfortable playing together. Until then, I'd like to see Di Maria as a CM.
I taught after some of our pre-season performance that Van Gaal 1-3-5-2 system will work out, but after seeing the way Van Gaal has utilized it in the bpl, I do not see the need for us to continue shoehorning players who cant play together. Moreover, there is no need to play a system that favors a position that we are not stocked piled with quality in. Changing to a 1-4-2-2-2 will thwart the isolation we have outwide, help the likes of Di Maria become more influential in the attack and we will look like a much more balanced team.
That is a progessive way of thinking. Looking at how Van Gaal has managed, I would not be suprised that against Qpr, we will see something like this
De gea
Jones - Blind - Rojo
Valencia - Fletcher(vc) - Di Maria - Young
Rooney(c)
van Persie(friend) - Falcao
Nevertheless, out of our star players, I think we might finally see Van Gaal dropping some out of our team. My guess will be mata and perhaps Falcao(only because he does not appear 100% fit).
I will be extremely disappointed if that is the squad. Almost a turn off the tv type... No blind, herrera, Rafa, Mata
I was thinking
De geaThis help fullbacks as they won't be isolated; both the wingers are creative, hardworking, and intelligence players and love dropping deep; Blind can drop deep and the CBs can move wide to compensate for FBs who are further up and all that good, triangle creating stuff.
Rafael - Jones - Rojo - Shaw
Blind - Hererra
Di Maria------Rooney(c)
van Persie - Falcao
Only problem is VP and Falcao occupying same spaces.I can't stop looking at my FPL team with Falco (captain) at home to QPR next, sat there in a United shirt. It feels so fecking good.Can you really see Falcao and RVP playing at the same time? I don't think so.
We will go 3-5-2
De gea
Smalling Jones Rojo
Rafael Blind Shaw
Herrera DiMaria
Rooney/Mata
Falcao/RVPFirst match i'll be off to this season. Hoping for this line up. Think its our strongest.
------------------- DDG

------------------- Mata
-- Di Maria - Falcao - RooneyI really hope we batter QPR.
Ridiculous club and I cannot stand 'arry nor anyone directly related to him.
I'm not sure if I could ever stop punching him or Jamie.Cant wait for this game! EXCITING!
Yep me too. Soon, very soon, we are going to absolutely batter a team.I am looking forward to this game.. Like that we started with a 352 this season and the results might not have been glamorous but it excites me... The fact that people are deliberately ignoring the gradual progression in all 3 games tends to piss me off...like I said a few weeks ago, for a football manager trying to fast track the education of his players it's the best way to go.. LVG won't scrap it coz it gonna ruin everything he has been trying to do with our player, to most it's about accommodating our celebrities but I disagree..it's strictly to get our lads playing as a unit and understanding varied footballing tactics...
I'd prefer Mata for Januzaj and Smalling for Jones, but otherwise this is what I'd like to see.I would love if we dropped the safety net this game and actually went for the win instead of trying to avoid the loss. Can't see QPR handling Falcao, Mata, van Persie, Di Maria and Januzaj in the same team.
Imagine Falcao and RVP in the box for crosses.
-------Falcao-------v. Persie
---------------Mata---------------
Di Maria--Blind-Herrera--Januzaj
----Rojo----Smalling---Jones----Another week yet. This is dragging like mad.
Late Sunday kickoff as well. Frustrating.
Brutal for Aus time!
That's decent, as far as fan-preferred lineups go, but something about Januzaj and Di Maria playing as wing-backs irritates me. When you have two players who are that talented at attacking, why curtail their ability to set up goals by demanding that they track back relentlessly to provide cover for our defensive frailties.
Surely we have to ditch this whole 3-4-1-2 formation, now that we have players capable of playing 4-3-3. Even if Rafael and Shaw aren't back by Saturday, we could easily play Blind or Rojo as LB and Valencia as RB.We should play 4-4-2
De Gea
Rafa CB CB Shaw
Someone Herrera Blind Di Maria
Rooney Falcao
I want this team home and away no matter who we are playing. Teams should fear us not the other way aroundI think it will be:
------------De Gea
------Evans-Jones-Rojo
Valencia---------------Young
------Herrera-Di Maria----
------------Mata------------
-------RVP-----Rooney
Then Blind and Falcao on in the second half.
I'd love 4-3-3, with Januzaj & Di maria on the wings, and RVP & Rooney dropped, but it's not gonna happen.Seeing Di Maria on the wing makes me think he's wasted in the middle... The only reason he should play central midfield against QPR is if Herrera doesn't make it. I'm not sure I'd want to see Fletcher & Blind together, especially against a side likely to battle relegation for a decent part of the season while we're at home.
If Herrera is still injured, then 3412 with Di Maria as a CM, then Mata + Rooney and Falcao/van Persie. If Herrera is fit, then 4231 with maybe Januzaj and Di Maria on the wings, Rooney behind Falcao/van Persie and Mata on the bench.Can't remember the last time I was this excited for match that wasn't a cup final. Hope all the new boys are fit and we get a look at the next evolutionary step of utd
Bring them on......im hoping for something like this
De gea
Rafael Jones Rojo Shaw
Herrera Blind
Rooney
Di maria Januzaj
RvpI hope to God we stop playing this 5-3-2 system with turn back Tony and Young on either side.I haven't really got a clue what formation we're going to play so I've plumped for the 3412 we've been using. I don't know how fit Rafael, Shaw and Herrera are so I've left them out.

Watch out QPR we are coming to get you!I see a lot of armchair pundits that criticised van gaal 3-5-2 and clamoured for 4 at the back have Rafael, shaw or rojo for the fullbacks positions. But they forget the last 3 epl matches these players were unavailable? Without these players I fail to see how we can play four at the backIf they are still playing 3 at the back, counter it with a 442/433 please! We'd murder them!
Probably not a coincidence but they switched to 4 at the back in their last game and got a win, they have a decent midfield aswell now tbf.
That's it, let's start the game with 10 men.... QPR won't know what's hit them!---------DDG---------
Rafa-Jones-Rojo-Shaw
Blind--Herrera--Di Maria
---------Mata---------
----Rooney-Falcao-----
With the players we now have available, i hope we stop with the 3-5-2 and revert to a 442/433.
Please no Fletcher. Herrera should definitely be back, Shaw was to be 4 weeks out and that was before season started so he should be fit.
Valencia will probably play over Rafael who I don't think will be back.
I'd like to see (if we HAVE to play 352)

Have I missed something? Is he injured or suspended?
Probably they watched Rooney's play in the match against Burnley and the national team's games. Rubbish touches, losing the balls a lot, not being able to link up well enough with Di Maria. These things might have been what they saw there, and the source of the judgement.
Public enemy No. 1
They don't rate/like him.
Despite LVG saying his captain will always play.
Mata & Januzaj are at most risk of getting dropped.
