Swans v Burnley

[Bob the slob]

This does not surprise me, because under Monk the back triangle (CBs + GK) is already looking very solid, whereas under Laudrup, there just wasn't one much of the time. It is the keystone of any defence, and when the team is pushed they will pull back and stand off the triangle which then needs to be very solid. A good defensive triang
BTW Was I the only person to be amused at MU fans complaining that Swansea are a big physical team and their players were being bullied off the ball?

A good defensive triangle has been established with CBs and Fab but bitter Vorm nor Tremmell had his presence. And for much of the season Ash was off form. That said the defensive triangle has to quickly flip to be CB, & DM and that is where we have lost he plot (or Leon as he's better known). The next triangle involve DM with fullbacks and I don't think Rangel and Taylor quite know their role in this season's set up.

I suspect Van Gaal will soon sort the problem out .. once SAF has taught him the names of the referees!

Is it just me or have the ManU managers gone from Old Red Nose to Old No Nose?

It is an unanimous opinion that we need a strong tackling midfielder and I am sure that the management are well aware of this as well. Hopefully someone will turn up this week.

I hope so! We haven't had one of those since Ferrie Bodde, man would I love to see someone in his mold come in!......................
