I don't think it's that bad an idea. Forlan is good on the wing, and Scholes can play up front.

But whatever, it isn't the first time we've use players out of position. I think this is where Fergie's reputation for being a poor tactician comes from.</strong><hr></blockquote>
If the experiment works, we'll all be happy, but last season too much experimentation cost us dear imo. He could have played our old midfield for this game, I think this is confirmation that Scholes is now a forward.

our old midfield? what's that?</strong><hr></blockquote>
Beckham Scholes Butt Giggs

With Butt interchangeable with Keano.

If it is, would that mean us not buying a forth striker when the transfer window opens again?

Y'know that the rumours were that Erikkson was hours away from being our manager? And that he wants him played as a central midfielder... Reckon Beckham might be playing there more often this season than before?
 
city is dominating Liverpool from what I've seen so far. Anelka is looking good.

We all wanted a creative forward, I guess you might be right that Scholes, Forlan and Giggs are now considered our options for that.

Gordon McQueen says we're playing too narrow, not using the wings.

As it's frequently from the wings that we get our best chances - why? <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

I prefer Beckham on the right, that's for sure.

The guy on sky thinks we're playing 3 in midfield, with Forlan up front. Do we even have a formation nowadays?
 
Maccarone scored. Wish Forlan does the same!!! I will perhaps start covincing myself that Boro made the wrong decision!!!!and not us!!

No it looks like Forlan's on the right.

Exactly.

I don't mind losing - but ffs let's at least play to our strengths.

No striker will even want to come to Old Trafford at this rate. Unless he's good enough to not need midfield service.

More and more I think we're trying to play Total Football, its very ambitious, and very demanding, possibly too much.

Good job you don't mind, because we might just do that now. 1-0 to Charlton, Jenson.

It might be boring but I'll keep saying it anyway.

Why can't we get back to playing the way that brought us success, and stop sodding round with formations.
 
COME ON UNITED! <img src="graemlins/keano.gif" border="0" alt="[Keano]" /> <img src="graemlins/keano.gif" border="0" alt="[Keano]" /> <img src="graemlins/keano.gif" border="0" alt="[Keano]" />
 
Bollox - we don't sound as though we're playing very well at all.

you can blame it on formations and what have you but there is something else that missing...

Lets revert to a midfield of

Beckham... Butt... Scholes ... Giggs

With Ole and Rudd up front...

The champions only lose 4 to 6 games in a season. This season they might lose even less than that, while we might lose too many before even Christmas. Ruud is on the bench yes?
