Manchester United Thread

Maybe its just me, but does anyone else find the addboards in chinese, malaysian or whatever language annoying? Just seen it at old trafford and saw it at anfield the other day.

In better news, Rafael has lasted a whole 23min. so far.

Glad I added Di Maria to my FT for this week! Hattrick please.
 
Di Maria looks incredibly amazing again today (Perez really looks like a proper idiot already) but what to me is the most impressive performance thus far imho is Blind.His presence in mid field and ...gasp..willingness to push the ball are something we haven't really seen in a while.
I'm a massive RvP fan but his body language atm is really annoying me..when celebrating goals it's as if he s sulking and thinking .."why not me?"

RvP finally showing a bit now ..looking better playing off the side.btw RvP,Rooney and Falcao all on the field together..doesn't get much more fantasy team than that when assembling a strike force lol.

Was only QPR as most will say but that was so satisfying seeing us play at such a tempo. Sterner tests ahead tho but for once in a long time I'm very optimistic
 
We played 4-4-2 diamond and we looked really good to be honest, Blind for me was immense, also Di Maria and Herrera. For once we can say we have a class midfield! :CONFUSE:

Rooney again looked out of place in that team and yet he has a goal and an assist to his name, sums up his last few years perfectly lol.
 
Rooney's fine up top but dropping into not so and never has been. Would have preferred Falcao to have come on for van persie
 
Sorry, I meant 4-3-1-2 (4-4-2 diamond).
Good news for United then that Van Gaal abandoned one of the worst formations in football that is 5-3-2. Those players in a 4-3-1-2 are frightening.
 
I don't think he's abandoned it just yet, we'll see what we line up like against Leicester.

The battle upfront is so intriguing, Rooney and Falcao should probably start next week IMO, RVP off the bench.
 
Will be nice to see Blind and Hererra build up a partnership together and i wouldnt mind Carrick possibly taking up a centre back position.

Click to expand...

He was asked about the 5-3-2 and he said he doesn't currently have the defenders for it as both Smalling (not match fit yet) and Jones are out.
 
So in the last week that boy Ronaldo has made a few headlines in regards to a possible return.

Seems the papers and 'insiders' believe theirs something to it. Guillem Balagué seems convinced (who announced both Di Maria and Falcao first) that he will eventually return.

Gary had his say too

All a bit insane really, but considering Woody at the minute I don't doubt he'll try.

Most effective player I've ever seen. Even at 30 with a few injuries I'd have him back in a heart beat. Think he'll finish his career as a striker.

Which means, oh look, we have Falcao, you have Ronaldo. Swapsies.
 
I think it was time for Ronaldo to be on the headlines on some sort of level. I bet by the end of the season they`ll(RM) will be gelling and all is well.
 
I don't know about that, I don't think he probably has any issues with any of the players, its more likely hes getting tired of the 'circus' antics of the president.

Real Madrid could have signed no one (as well as selling no one) and they'd be in a far better position than they are in right now, the NEED to constantly create headlines and seek attention has been a detriment.
 
He only got two Bebo. Granted one of them was so good it would've counted for about 5 on the playground but still.

Glad he's scoring but honestly, glad he moved on as well.
 
Feck Clattenburg..again.

0-2
1-2 (ball taken past backline..no outside given)
1-3
2-3 (penalty Leicester..absolutely no penalty ever..http://gfycat.com/WhimsicalCoarseCattle )
3-3
4-3 (horrid defending to be fair)
5-3 (penalty/red card Blackett - Yellow Rooney for speaking up)

In the meantime only one card for Leicester despite rough play and not getting a card for the push again Di Maria... and Rafael in the non-penalty build up) Mind boggling.

We looked beautiful up until the 2-3..then completely fell apart.
