Drop januzaj and play both. Go with a diamond.

That would be my choice, Januzaj could come on as impact if needed or to rest di maria if we are well in front.
Rooney or Mata at 10? for me it would be Rooney for a few games, Mata seems to have lost it a bit since the first few games, i think the speed of our attacks has increased and he has not caught up yet.
(no more questions i promiss, not going through the whole team <laugh>)

Costa's presence would have given the midfield - notably Fabregas a different kind of target, he's all about movement and getting in behind, as opposed to the more static Drogba. He plays off the shoulder and has already formed a lethal combination with Fabregas. So their play would have differed is the answer.

I read somewhere that Fabregas completed very few passes (think the figure was 4 in the first half), thats because he was kept out of the game not because he had nobody to pass to.

Fabregas made 11 passes in the first half. 5 of them found a team mate. He wasn't allowed to get into the game.

Rooney too but as a striker. Probably alongside rvp though i would prefer falcao. I would play fellaini as number 10 or almost floating as he did v chelsea. A pain in the arse basically.

FFS what ever happened to Fellaini? He was so pants under Moyes last year . This year he is totally unrecognisable. If he played like that Last year, we would have been in the CL this <ok>
 
Back to the RS ...

Let's see Chelsea tear the RS apart at Anfield. After the humiliation by Madrid, they will look forward to meet the chavs..<laugh>

Injuries, played as a holding mid so as not to upset a big name by dropping them for him, Moyes? any or all of these.

I obviously disagree as first half we were well on top. Unlucky not to be a goal up. Second half chelsea had a really strong 20 minute spell. Looked good and deserved the goal. We didnt create much but we started to turn the screw the last ten minutes. I felt we just needed one clear chance and we would score. We did.

Im not saying we were miles better. Just edged it overall. Deserved at least a point.

How? Their goal keeper did his job and you put nothing at him he couldn't control. You were lucky not to be a goal down beofore half time with the double head lock by your defenders which should have been a penalty!!

Chelsea simply ****ed up their tactics and credit to Utd for not giving up and grabbing a late winner. Stats can be misleading, for me Chelsea played a much more controlled game. It was a case of anti-football backfiring in the end, which lets be honest is a good thing <ok>

This "controversy" simply reiterates the fact that everyone, absolutely everyone, is interested in United. Defenders have been doing that for years. Occasionally a penalty is given and a few pundits grumble about how refs need to take control of the situation but it's all forgotten by the time Tony Cascarino slurs his way through his weekend review on Sky Sports News. It happens in a match that United were supposed to lose comfortably but didn't and all of a sudden Graham Poll and every half arsed football fan across the country is in tears about it.

Skrtel is probably the worst at it if I'm honest, so I'm not saying it like you probably read it <ok>

But for 2 players to do it and not be seen, was very lucky. No question every team has a man handler, but consideing Shawcross got ****ed over by it I was surprised to have not seen anything given. I think Skrtel has been spoken to about it recently as he doesn't seem as bad, but at one point he has doing it at every chance possible.

I thought chelsea looked like nothing. Bar a 20 min spell they created nothing, did nothing and were probably easiest side our defence has faced.

Their best player was their keeper which tells you everything you need to know.
