So, the big one is here. League Cup, the one we all want to win. And we need to, or else our bad patch becomes terminal and it'll all go to ****. The big question, will the dual guilty parties of Fellaini and Rooney be dropped or kept on? Interesting fact; Northampton Town are know as The Cobblers. Which I think is a fair description of our football over the last couple of weeks. I won't be posting on this thread as I plan to go out an watch.
Interesting fact about Northampton - I went there once and came to the conclusion it's a ****hole that serves no purpose whatsoever.
Rooney CF. Is Young playing on the right? He's been awful every time he's played RW tbh. And Rojo, why are we playing him? His days at United should be over. Tbf to @Chief looking at that line up, I'd love Jose to try a 4-3-3 but I doubt he will. Schneid----Carrick---Herrera Young-----Rooney-----Depay but likely to be.... ----Schneid----Carrick Young---Herrera---Depay ----------Rooney
Rooney plays = we're fu*#ed. He had better bang them in tonight or there is no hope for him, mind you as CF I expect to see a lot of him in our 18 yd box helping out DdG and Rojo
Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out... Rooney misses a game ''we needed Rooney'' we would have won the game with Rooney in the team, Rooney in Rooney in Rooney in Rooney in Rooney in Rooney in. Bad game Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out Rooney out. Everyone has a bad game but single Rooney out Drop Rooney Drop Rooney Drop Rooney Drop Rooney Drop Rooney Drop Rooney Drop Rooney Drop Rooney Drop Rooney Drop Rooney Drop Rooney REPEAT
There's still far too many touches on the ball. It's just not quick enough. It's not that we don't have pace in the team, it's just the fact that the players just don't appear to know each other's game or have any purpose to their passing. Hangover from Van Gaal? It certainly looks like it.
It's sad to say, but this is League 1 opposition, we've absolutely dominated with ease... and Rooney has been ****ing woeful.
Dominated for the first 25 mins by which time everyone in the United side realised we weren't playing with a CF and gradually reverted to life under Van Gaal where we passed it aimlessly while trying to figure out who might actually get into the opposition box. IF however, we'd had a CF we would've been 4-0 up in the same period. **** off Wayne
