What about a diamond formation in midfield? RvP and Rooney up front, Mata directly behind them, Januzaj and Valencia on the wings and Fellaini just in front of the defense.

That will leave us even more exposed in midfield though :/

Nah we need more guys as CDM's... Felliniani + Carrick/Jones.

In my opinion someone needs to be sacrificed up front to accomodate players in their best positions and seeing as Rooney just signed. . .

Rooney wants to be a striker. Mata wants to be a CAM. Neither of them can play where they want to play because. . . RvP. At 31 RvP is probably as good as he will ever be (yes, I know, he is damn good) while Rooney is at the age where he should be playing his best and Mata can still develop further.

Carrick/Summer signing - Fellaini/Summer signing

Lallana (sign him!) - Mata - Zanuzaj

Rooney

Good game.

Fellaini played well, I'll give him that. But that's because he was pushing forward a lot.

It won't work against better teams though, we'll get exposed.

Carrick?

De Gea; Smalling, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra; Valencia, Carrick, Cleverley, Young; Rooney, van Persie.

Fsking cleverly starts, Young and Valencia. Fsk off Moyes

United subs: Lindegaard, Büttner, Fellaini, Giggs, Kagawa, Hernandez, Welbeck

Only 1 defender on the bench? Bit risky. Are we that short at the back?

And we've conceded the first goal. Not surprised, we have been playing terribly. Easily one of the worst halves of the season. Nobody in this team has a clue.

This has been one of the most pathetic first halves I have ever witnessed. This team has become a complete joke. Moyes has destroyed them...

That was pathetic, pass around in defence and then long ball it in, Valencia has been dire. Schit team selection, schit tactics, hate to say it but schit manager.

Told you, Moyes is tactically inept. He has no idea how to use this team. Terrible team selection, no tactics or game plan. Not United quality.

Shocking first half. Ive seen pub teams play better, Moyes is looking clueless.
