The manager isn't blameless of course, 3-5-2 isn't the best formation at all. Some of our best performances this season were with the diamond. However the players have been equally as bad today. None of them playing close to their potential, bar Valencia.

I wouldnt but seriously LVG out thread would be embarassing.what are our midfield doing sitting so deep? Absolutely terrible.
Does that make their game better?Positions are very bad really.Southampton play much better than us. At least we robbed three points at their place.Rooney, abysmal today.I blame Valdes!Still need a clear out of the wasteWe're so predictable it's painful. Anyone who watches is knows exactly what we're going to do and Koeman knew exactly what his team were going to do to shut us down.
Van Gaal is supposed to be a tactical genius. He's been totally out thought here.Why are we second to every ball?Bringing Blackett on fecked us upRooney's touch has been embarrassing today. I like how people talk about dropping one of our attacking players yet his name never gets discussed. Trying to fit him in is detrimental to the side, either play him up top or not at all.Mata looks a bit shorn of confidence all the sudden. Needs to clear his head.
Really?Even if we rescue a draw, this has to be the end of the 3-5-22 points in last 3 games. Not convinced we'll beat QPR either, despite the fact they're shit.
Not on bench, made all subswe are chasing a goal yet leave a £300k a week striker out of the match day squad entirely. Incredible.Oh feck off Tadic you twat.Looks like Lvg's running out of luck.It's just one of those days, the number of knee jerks in this thread is seriously crazy.90 min
Injury Time
Five minutes added time.get an ambulance ffsHave we had a shot on target?
Yeah but other than those technicalities...
I wouldnt bet on it unfortunately.Fergie time.
Get up you pussy.
Because that's where they're told to stand by the formation. Three defenders, two deep midfielders, and barely anyone in the attacking third. It's the LvG way.Despicable by Tadic.
Aaaaah VG time!Tadic you cnut.5 minutes of VG time!drag him off the pitch and don't give the ball back
Compared to who though? Carrick? Rooney isn't a midfielder. Their 2 have had it easy today.feck off tadicI'm still scratching my head at the Shaw sub. It's clear Blackett isn't ready. If Shaw is on the pitch, that Southampton goal doesn't happen.- Status
Well - attacking football culminating in meaningful chances anyway.Man of the Match
