Lekkie073, Martial drifts to the wings like Thierry Henry when playing as a striker. So his heat map no follow.

I love high pitch pressing, and it goes with a high defensive line.
You need defenders with good pace to achieve the high defensive line.

You understand the game. We have to keep Blind out of the central defence. We play two of Smalling, Jones, Bailly.

But Bailly is giving me mixed signs. We wait until EPL starts. Wish we brought out money to buy Bonucci.

Phil Jones played the high line (a very high one) and it helped us to press better. At some point he chased an opposition back, he easily caught up despite the opposing player being offside. I pray he stays fit. People will finally get to understand what I have been saying about this guy.


You mean you have to start fasting & praying for "one of our fittest defenders" to stay fit before we get to know how good mediocre he is?

Memphis also making poor decisions, although he did better today. May be if he started when the game was tight he wouldn't have done as good.
Good for his confidence if you ask me. He was quite sleek in possession & even tried a long range curler that bumped off a defender into the air before the ball could really take flight.

For skillful young players like that don't underestimate what a solid cameo can do for their confidence.

As for Rooney, elamps forget. If truly Pogba lands here Rooney should find comfort on the bench. Yes his passing improved after the break, yes he showed more eagerness & sense to be mobile enough but he was just there overall. He is still useful don't get me wrong, but there are clearly better options & we can't let nepotism stand in the way of a big establishment like Man Utd.

With mobile players around Mata, I honestly don't see Rooney benching Mata on merit in that No. 10.

Mata came when the game had been won. We also played high defence at the time which made life easy for the forwards.

Rooney has only trained one week, Mata three weeks. Don't forget that too.

You probably have not seen how Jones and Smalling work together. They act as sweepers behind each other. One goes to intercept or tackle, the other acts as a sweeper behind.

If you have good memory, you would remember I said last season was an exception for Jones when compared to other young defenders. So I wish last season doesn't repeat itself.

Jones will prove to you he is our best defender if you want to be sincere in your assessment. He was most tidy today and looked sharp. If he can have 10 straight games, then you will see a world class defender.

have you looked @ it from the angle "what if Rooney's first half performance disrupted the flow for others around him?"

He got second chance @ redemption, the others around him did not. So would you still have praised him if he was taken out like Mkhitaryan you have called inconsistent?

Anyway no need to dwell here, let's observe their contributions next season.

I hope they all do well tho, for the sake of the club.

TBH his performance in the 2nd half was better than in the 1st but i thought Mata looked better generally in the 10.
I honestly can't remember. We couldn't do that under LVG even in preseason so this can only be a good thing.
Lol!

Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy has stressed that rejecting a move to Arsenal was an “easy” decision for him, insisting a transfer was never on the cards.
The England international was believed to be close to joining Arsenal after they triggered his release clause, but he eventually signed a new contract with Leicester instead.
The 29-year-old has now reflected on his decision to stay put and is adamant staying at the Premier League champions was an easy call to make in the end.
"[Turning down Arsenal] wasn't that big when I think about it. It was quite easy and this is where I want to be," Vardy told Sky Sports.

Did you even read what you posted?
It was stated in the screen-shot that Van gaal shortened our stay in China which already solidify my claim that he wasn't in support of our trip to China.

To be frank, you're the only one I've seen putting the China blame on Van gaal. The Redcafe fans were even saying Van gal would be in one corner telling people "I told you so" after our China trip was cancelled because he was never in support of it in the first place!

As per those who are still hoping on Herrera coming good while blaming Van gaal as the witch who sucked his talent, I hope you see for yourself now!

He wasn't nicknamed the spanish Cleverley for nothing. Atleast, Cleverley's sideways passing are mostly accurate unlike the dogshite Herrera constantly served.
