Falcao should be replacing him next week even if he scores a hat trick. He's just not got it anymore and doesn't suit the new players and style of play we need to move forward.

I wouldn't say that he's not got it anymore because he's still showing that for Holland that he is still a world class striker and I still think that he is too. I do think that he needs 3/4 games out though. And I'm confident that bar a great game from him today, Falcao will be replacing him next week.

OFFTOPIC : Slippy gerrard subbed for today's game against stoke. Thought of sharing this. dont call me a scouser.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Two big predictions (because my one about Wilson worked out sooo well).

1. We will win comfortably, RVP will get a couple
2. Liverpool will lose, Rodgers gets the sack for dropping Slippy

Reminds me when Newcastle, think it was Gullit, dropped Shearer.

 

[JPRouve]

So should we say that knocks that theory on the head?

It's one of the dumbest theory possible, Rooney is seen as the perfect striker by almost all the top coaches.

 

[Pexbo]

I'd prefer it to be:

De Gea
Valencia - Smalling - Rojo - Young
Carrick
Di Maria - Fellaini - Rooney - Mata
Van Persie

​

Although I would have put McNair/Blackett in for Young, meaning Rojo would move to left back.

Disagree. The single most important positional point today is that Fellaini is central and not bunged out wide.

 

[stu_1992]

Odd line-up today. Seems content to stick with the 3-5-2 formation for now. Not sure exactly how that midfield will shape-up though.

Why aren't we on Setanta, but the scousers are?
I thought we were always on there when on 3pm.

Yeah it's fairly annoying alright.

 

[JinnerJamie]

Small place in Leeds or something should be fair.

Chip shop at the end of the M62... or Cod heads but that is questionable as I can't remember the story behind it.

 

[Raoul]

Tony V - 200th appearance today.

 

[Empire]

People seem to want to build their own ocean or something...

 

[SkeppyRed]

If we play 352 then Carrick is playing as a CB, leaving Fellaini alone. ADM is a quality CM though, and hopefully we'll need to do very little defending today...

I think (and hope) Carrick will play in between the defence and the midfield, stepping in and stepping out when necessary. Its the perfect position for him imo. It also allows us to play a 3-5-2 and a diamond at the same time.

Someone on here must have a link by now? Share!

 

[SeaCarrot]

Lets go United. Easy win here would suit me to a tee.

 

[Dylan94]

Well you did say he always was...

Ok always was too extreme. But he has hardly ever played well as one. I'd rather RvP play this week off of Rooney than have an extra midfielder and Rooney on his own. Next week Falcao will be replacing him anyway if he doesn't do anything today & maybe even if he does so there's no problem.

 

[JonDahl]

4-0 win.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Fellaini is central, or did you mean Di Maria?

 

[Man-United]

How is it to live in Hull? If you still do as it say on loaction. Read it was said to be "worst town in England"

 

[SeaCarrot]

Bit sad that Falcao isnt starting instead of Van Persie who really isn't deserving, dutch factor playing a role for sure.

Carrick in CB isn't super reassuring either.

 

[Golo]

Damn, woeful line up, skeptical about this.

 

[JPRouve]

He was not really a lone striker in 2012 I think.

In this season Welbeck played behind him, he wasn't alone per say but he was the one playing upfront.

 

[BringNaniBack]

Yet another manager who doesn't have the bottle to drop the big names or "his mates". RVP should not be starting and if he wasn't Dutch and Van Gaals mate then he wouldn't be.

 

[LeftyBlaster]

Still no Ander eh? Hope we see him at some point

 

[Dylan94]

The bbc's live text feed always seems to post the most idiotic public comments possible. Wilson is injured as are half of our summer signings.

 

[DatIrishFella]

Any decent websites I can watch this on?

 

[Dazzmondo]

Lol, Gerard on the bench. Either Rodgers has already lost his support or he's about to. Living on borrowed time either way.

 

[Rampant-red]

This is a game we need to win and to win with style

 

[Pexbo]

Fellaini is central, or did you mean Di Maria?

It's very late here.

 

[Dazzmondo]

A start for Michael! Good for him! Hope he does well.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Still no Ander eh? Hope we see him at some point

I said earlier that he was laughing and joking with the other lads on the bench in the lineup. He probably doesn't have a problem with it. It's just us hysterical beings.

Don't care about the score. As long as we win.

 

[Pexbo]

Very long shot but any way of streaming to an iPhone?!

Bloody scousers are dominating the TV room in the hostel.

Wankers.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Don't care about the score. As long as we win.

Exactly, got to get 4th back.

 

[Trizy]

Its 4 at the back?

 

[Dobba]

Don't care about the score. As long as we win.

This. We just need to get through these games until we get key players back and can find a formation/team that LvG wants to play week in, week out.

 

[Amethyst]

1 touch for RVP.

 

[marlowe78]

Corner

 

[XdanielredX]

Hope Falcao and Herrera make an appearance today.

Especially Hererra and hope he plays well, will put a lot of minds at ease

 

[bosnian_red]

Looks like a 4-4-2
