Well, we've had the first one out of the way, few questions, few answers, but generally we are all just about satisfied. So, we move on to the biggest team not in Manchester next week, apparently they have shattered confidence, and Ashley Young's breath is hinking of fish. So, how do we set up? I say we go and win this ****er, they are nothing to be feared as long as we keep a handle on Rooney, I noted yesterday that Mata, one of the most gifted players in the league, looked devoid of ideas and flat as a fart, a little slap early doors should take him out of the game. I'd go for a couple of changes, but keep the same general shape. ----------Vito---------- Jones--Wes---JOS--PVA ---------Catts---------- AJ------Rodwell----Giacc --------Gomez---------- -------Wickham--------- I'm not suggesting Gomez at the front of a diamond, but as the most advanced CM, some lovely little passes yesterday, if Giacc isn't fit, let's give Mavrias a break. Fletcher deserves benched for literally not being arsed yesterday.
Gomez slipped in without so much as a kazoo, never mind a fanfare, but I think he'll be a very good signing. I'm not basing that on his superb pass, yesterday, I said it when we signed him. I also think he'll be way more consistent than Ki would've been.
Yeah, I think the lad will see this as a major move as well, having been at Wigan for a good while. He had been mentioned in the past as a player to target, but Wigan go down and it gets forgotten, he is a very, very tidy player is Gomez, could be a major asset. As said, I wanna see him start, he does also have that hammer left foot on him as well, he'll chip in a few.
--------------Mannone---------------- Vergini---Oshea--Brown---Van Aanholt -------------Cattermole--------------- Buckley--Larsson----Rodwell--Johnson --------------Wickham---------------- Id love it if van gaal picks that same 11 and formation he did yesterday. Have a feeling he'll go 4 at the back with Mata Januzaj and Young behind Rooney.
I'd have him taking our corners & free kicks as well ........ Rodwell is better in the air or I'd have him.
I'd have no objection to Seb for Gomez, woder if Seb could even play in the Giacc position if he's still out. He said he wanted to play out wide, and he was beating me like Ronaldhino at one point yesterday!
