Unbelievable ball from Young! Rooney wtf! What the hell is wrong with him today.
 
Swear Paddy just got something right and the commentator made him sound stupid when he was right. It was Valencia who got battered by Madrid in 2000, not Leverkusen in 2002?
 
Any formation struggles against good teams who park the bus. More often then not though, when you have players like rooney, mata and van Persie, you'll get a goal in the first half and force them out. It's got nothing to do with the formation I think.

you are right ,struggle is probably too strong. But then valencia aren't parking the bus they are closing down the spaces very quick.
 
Not Rooney's day today. Should've scored a hat trick by now.
 
We need to be a bit mor patient this season lads,its going to be possession football all the way,we will slowly break teams down but it will be winning football as well.Happy days ahead
 
Blackett has just had a much better footballing education than Jones or Smalling coming through the United academy. Our academy defenders are certainly taught how to play out from the back even if our first team haven't always done it. Smalling and Jones take too many touches and play it sideways too often. It's no coincidence that Evans, Blackett and Keane are all comfortable on the ball.

5 years ago Rooney would have smashed that into the far corner.

Five years ago was 2009, right? People were moaning and talking shit about Rooney in 2009 so no.

The myth is that he was at the level of Messi in 2004, which is also false by the way.
