    He knows he is as well; he's trying really hard to stand out with his statements and "passion".

    They're all twats on there but he always manages to stand out whenever he's on. You can tell none of the rest of them like him.

    Its like he deliberately sabotages the side so we lose when Rooney is out. Just put Morgan in and that team looked fricking solid. I think we will look good going forwards but be very shaky at the back.. going to be an exciting game this.

    I will be hoping we win, it is a decent side after all - kudos LVG, please carry on like this.

    That penny will drop soon too. Today is a step in the right direction, imo.
     
    I'd pretty fired up for this for some reason. feck the whole 'lose so we can get him out' idea. Let's win this! Come on!

    You mis understand. It's got nothing to do with Fellaini. It's about our selection of DMs. Stoke play with pace on the break and Carrick has always been unable to track fast runners and now he's 34 it's glaring. I'm worried because our DMs offered no protection against Norwich and nothings changed in this fixture against a much better team.

    It's not rocket science. We're in a physical, fast league and we're relying on a slow 34 year old as our DM. :lol:

    Its all about Fellaini. You are right that Carrick for Schneiderlin is the change to make for this game but half the posts since the line ups are about how he's picked Fellaini over Schneider.....

    Let's hope the players now show van Gaals fighting spirit today. Regardless of what you think about his presser and him, he's fired up. Hopefully the players are too because its on them entirely now.
     
    Rooney not looking angry and confused?
     
    Got to say it's a good team other than Fellaini but I can understand why he is going with Fellaini at stoke.
     
    Fingers crossed it is Herrera playing next to Carrick, and not Fellaini.

    Alternatively maybe it's a true three man midfield where both are sitting deep or taking turns going forward. As long as Fellaini isn't part of a midfield two, I'm fairly excited about seeing how things go.
     
    Feeling unusually optimistic today....maybe the xmas spirit is high and working.

    C'mon United!!!!
     
    Fellaini against all these nippy Stoke attackers is worrying. Can't understand that decision at all.
