Citys? You sure?

They play a 2 man midfield system and it could not cope with us before the red. Yaya and fernadinho or whichever one barely had a touch and had no influence pre red card.

We had fellaini playing that day, no herrera or mata. City were missing silva.

I would say its much closer than you think.

 

Causes him pain knowing rooneys record reads as played 16, scored 11, assisted 4. 15 in 16. I think people refer to that as world class.

Especially as hes been playing much deeper.

 

If I was to make a mixture of them I'd go with

Fernandinho Toure
Navas Silva Di Maria

 

Rooney would be where fellaini is and do you actually rate fernando/inho. Never been impressed by either. Yaya is also way off form this season. Fellaini has been better than him... Ish.

 

Be very sloppy that midfield. Up against a bayern or barcelona is could get ugly.

I wouldn't have yaya, fern, navas. Would have herrera, rooney and matic though.

 

Get out!

 

Well Matic plays for Chelsea so in my Untied & City combined team he is ineligible

If we're doing all 3 then I'd go with

Fabregas Matic
Silva Toure Di Maria

 

Navas is too frustrating. Very quick and occasionally whips in a cracking cross. Most of the time though his decision making and final ball is poor. He also can't shoot, at all!

 

Fabregas' whereabouts are still currently unknown. Last season walking onto the pitch at old trafford.

 

That would be assuming you weren't picking a side to play against a decent team as Fabregas is a flat track bully. Would always pick Yaya. When he's in the mood and not sulking about a birthday cake he's almost unplayable.

 

Fabregas would walk into any midfield in the Prem

Most assists this season... give me that flat track bully every day of the week. I'll have Fabregas the flat track bully feeding Suarez the other flat track bully

 

As a united fan, fabregas has only once performed against us. This was as a 16 year old on his debut in a community shield game.

Of course hes decent and i would have had him at united but hes always lacking in those big games and sometime in his career its going to cost hos team (has at arsenal already).

 

Which ia every other season.

2012 brilliant
2013 average
2014 brilliant
This season average

 

You're claiming Fabregas has been average this season?

 

You know performing against United isn't the be all and end all of becoming a good footballer? Maybe it's the fact he's playing in a side managed by Wenger who doesn't know how to beat teams managed by Ferguson or Mourinho?

 

Yaya

 

Pick any top side and its the same story.

 

Still been more influential than any of United or Liverpool's CM this year.

 

His net spend at Wigan was equal to minus 1 Borini you tit

 

Rooney has played as an attacking midfielder so he hasnt. Then theres di maria too. Could also put herrera there.
