Antonio Valencia destroyed Chile. 1 goal (first goal) , 1 Assist (3rd goal) , and was heavily involved in the second goal. He is always a beast for his country. The other day I saw a highlight where he carried the ball from one end of the field to another, through the middle, to give an Assist to a team mate to do a simple slot in. |

Since the Team lacks quality wide men , a 4-4-2 diamond might be Mourihno's best shot at getting optimal performances from the players at his disposal... An Ibra/Martial partnership could be beneficial to the side - the combination of the frenchman's agility and the Swede's hold-up play (plus technique) isn't a bad idea IMO. Our Full Backs would provide the width while Herrera provides stability in Midfield (alongside Carrick (whenever Pogba decides to bomb forward from his Prefered LCM position). The likes of Miki & Rashford could replace Mata & Martial respectively.

Pogba completed a word-record £89m switch to Manchester United in August. But Zidane has now revealed Champions League holders Real were interested too. "He could have come," Zidane told former France team-mate Cristophe Dugarry on Radio Montecarlo last night. "There were conversations to try and sign him but it didn't go ahead." Real are set to be quiet in the transfer market for the next two windows. The club face a ban from signing any players for the illegal signing of underage players - but they are contesting the Fifa-imposed penalty. Pogba, 23, has made a mixed start to life back at United. The midfield dynamo bagged his first goal in the 4-1 rout of Leicester last month. But he’s also drawn criticism for his performances in his other run outs for the club. culled from dailystar |

PietroRico: You are right - na Mourihno dey see the players for training everyday & he should be in the best position to determine the best tactics for the team... I only made the suggestion because I remember that he employed similar tactics during his successful stint at Porto - Costinha or Pedro Mendes at the base, Maniche/Alenichev at LCM & RCM respectively....with Deco on the tip (i can't remember Benni Mcarthy's partner upfront). He also employed similar tactics at Chelsea (albeit occasionally) during his 1st tenure at Chelsea - Makelele at the base, Essien/Ballack at the wide edges and Lampard at the Tip. |

AdisaOwala: It was Mcarthy and Derlei primarily but when he wanted pace up front he went with Carlos Alberto and if he wanted aerial prowess he would bring on Edgaras Jankauskas like at Old Trafford when Porto knocked us out. Your formation is not bad though it requires the full backs to do a lot and we would depend on their creativity going forward, also i would start Rashford ahead of Martial as a striker. By now it should be apparent that Rashford has superior movement and positioning, Martial is better with dribbling, close control e..t.c |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by AdisaOwala: 3:29pm On Oct 07, 2016 |
afrodoc2: In this regard, I think we have Fullbacks that would fit in seamlessly - it could even be argued that Valencia & Shaw are more of wingbacks while Blind is also very effective from an attacking POV. Na Mediocres like Rojo & Darmian fit Spoil the setup. afrodoc2: I only Put Martial there because he seems to be more mature than Rashford - the Frenchman could drop to the bench if need be. Left to me, Rashford has no business on the wing. Like you rightly observed, if the lad has a keen eye for goal & is always looking to get into promising positions - he shouldn't be shunted out wide. In a nutshell, I rebuke anything that would make the young man metamorphorse into "Welbeck the headless chicken". With this formation, it is expected that.... 1.Pogba would be free to roam 2. Rashford's development into a World-class CF could be accelerated 3. Mata/Miki would get to play the trequartista role 4. The team would still be tactically & positionally balanced (with the presence of Carrick & Herrera in Midfield). If things aren't going as planned, Mourinho could revert to the use of wingers. . 1 Like |

Elxandre: Favouritism plays roles in most of our daily lives (that is a given) but in ur church mind, tell me the pple Herrrera can bench for that starting place in that Spanish squad For me, I rate Koke & Fab ahead of him in everything....he is better than Isco & Alcantanra ONLY as a workaholic 1 Like |

weedtaker: Pep wants specific things from his keepers and shotstopping is not top on the list. Hart is a better shot stopper than Bravo yet he chose Bravo because of his ability to pass from the back. He even preferred to use Cabalero than use Hart As a DM Busquets is the best in the world and has been the best for over 5 yrs. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 7:14pm On Oct 07, 2016 |

As a DM Busquets is the best in the world and has been the best for over 5 yrs.if he's what you claim he is, i see no reason why peeps here should be calling for fellaini's head every match day. eph12:he's bang average, its not even up for debate. Pedro was never an integral part.you are kidding right? |
