So Van Hoof seems to be using his plan A from the off and not bothering with the 60 minutes of passing triangles designed to make it look like he has any other tactic.
Not sure what happened, but I think it ended up turning into a Cilla Black vs Micheal Jackson contest - or something similar.
01 de Gea 36 Darmian 12 Smalling 17 Blind 23 Shaw 16 Carrick 31 Schweinsteiger 08 Mata 21 Herrera 07 Depay 27 Fellaini
I can understand the choice of Carrick over Schneiderlin for this game tbf. Just hope we aren't caught flat-footed so Blind will have to read the runs really well.
Without a proper striker up front I'm not convinced. Even as a body, Rooney would be a focal point for our attacks.
well .. who said we don't need another ST? everytime Schweinsteiger start we struggle not sound promising
The two chances we've created - Depay and Fellaini fluffed but a proper striker would have likely finished at least one or been available for the pass to score.
