Is anyone watching? I cant believe what I'm seeing from Utd, they are far worse than i ever imagined. They have nothing through the middle of the pitch at all. There is nothing to pass at, nobody making a pass and nobody stopping Burnley just slicing though the middle. They desperately need 2 new centre mids and 3 new centre backs. Sunderland's 1-1 is looking like points dropped for them. Di Maria is playing well, mind.
Man Utd seem to be buying all left sided players at the moment - surely what they need is top quality centre halves? This is the time to be playing them while they are low on confidence and are struggling to adapt to their new system. Burnley will fancy their chances of at least a point today. Knowing our luck ManUre will be sh1t hot by the time we play them
Shots on & off target are mostly Burnleh's. As are corners. Fouls are mostly Manure's. This is why I tipped a draw - Van Gaal has not got Manure used to 3-5-2 yet.
Watching Soccer Saturday and Merson has said Huddlestone is the best English passer in the game and should be in the squad as a holding midfielder.
I don't really know where else to put it. I was watching Soccer Saturday to find the Burnley Man Utd score, so no.
Di maria looks class though. Is anyone else shocked to see such a change of football from united simply because of a new formation? People are on about time to adapt etc but for **** sake, surely it's not LVG's fault rooney and van persie can't string a pass between each other?
A team with Di Maria, Rooney and Van Persie should just be able to play football. Its actually incredible to watch.
I think Di Maria looks off it a little. He wants free kicks for good tackles. I reckon in a month or two he'll be up to speed.
There recruitment has been very strange. With Blind they will have spent £60m on left backs/wingbacks
Man U have the players but they have no heart. They should have hired a coach with some passion and Rooney really isn't the captin type.
That amazes me. Sagbo didn't do much for a red on Thursday and yet Reid commits a very blatant and cynical tackle on Welbeck and its a yellow.
