Good idea! Step 1. LVG plays youth and we win - BOOM... LVG should be given a lifetime contract. Step 2. We get beat by a mid table team - BUST... LVG should go right now. Rinse and repeat.
Blind is OK as a utility player in the tradition of O'Shea, P.Nev, etcBlind is so weak.why the deck are we bothering with crosses, they'll mop them up all day longLol only Martial in the box for that cross.Memo to LVG we can use more than 1 sub.
To be fair we were worse with 11 men.As much of a nobhead Mata is...Mike Dean is a cnuting bald feckwit.
It's only since this clown showed up that we have had problems with WBA.Carrick really is the pinnacle of alibi footballers.The natural order is being restored after the midweek advantage we took.Fellaini and Memphis for Lingard and Rashford, and not in the 85th minute please.Saying to my lad, you just don't know which Utd is going to turn up......
Mata's irresponsible behavior today is the problem, not LVG and his signings. It's extremely hard to play 65 minutes with 10 players, especially on the road. I can't complain about LVG today.
Having said that, I hope LVG won't wait too long before brining Fellaini in.I miss the days when we'd just get all our strikers on the pitch at once at the end of a game like this. Even when it failed miserably.Blind is a waste of space. Rondon treating him like a toddler.Our crossing into the box is so pointless at times. I don't think we know how to get it even close to our own players. Always goes to a defender with zero chance our player can get anywhere near it.When do we see Fellaini?
And people thought that LVG will turn things around
You really have to be deluded to still being thinking that
na sure he will still need to replace the two fullbacks for no reason at some stageHow about we stop playing long balls and have our midfielders run into the box. Playing the ball out to the wing and putting a cross in to martial who's surrounded by 4 giants is pretty pointless.He's waiting too long to make a change. We need 2 goals.Would bring Fellaini on for Carrick. Memphis for one of Lingard or Rashford too.Most predictable game in a long time. Nothing changes.
Van Gaals then into Matas mouth.
now we haven't got any on the bench... oh wait Fellani!!!There should be a 10 minute return policy rule on subs. That way we could've subbed Herrera back on now when we need him, since LvG the tactical genius thought that going defensive was a good move when we finally established some of that control that he loves so much.Back to the same old shit... pass sideways, sideways, pass back then hoof it forward.Why is Memphis not on?Carrick is slower than standing still. Ben Foster would beat him to a loose ball in midfield.When it matters, LVG just can't get it done. The three wins against Midgetland, Shrewsbury and Watford were almost gimmes and the Arsenal game was a free hit. Today we have reverted back to shite when the opening is there for us.
Its not the player, Herrera was six out of 10 today, its what it symbolised to West Brom: an attacking midfielder off for a defensive midfielder. Its like telling them "don't worry about defending we're not interested in attacking you, just commit all your players forward". That's exactly how West Brom responded to the sub too. Van Gaal's subs were meant to change the momentum of the game in his team's favour, virtually not happened at United.We need some pace on the wings for counters. Stick Varela on the right and Memphis/TFM on the left. Or one of those and splurk that big mop up front with Martial running off his headers. LvG, get a grip for fecks sake!
John o'shea is on a different level to blind. Blinds quality is the Dutch league he hasn't got the skill level to play in the premier leagueI feel like our heads have dropped after that goal, we are far too much a confidence side, for which I do blame LvG for.Memphis will come on. take free kick and hit row ZZBlind - hoof, hoof, hoof and hoofs.
Not so sure we will see the change.The Schneiderlin sub still baffles me- Status
