The Manchester United Thread

Just curious, where do people stand regarding signing Falcao permanently after this season? And what would the reaction be if LvG does the opposite?

IMO bit early to judge. He was injured or was regaining fitness almost half the time and in the games he played he was played in the role he was not good at. He is not a back to goal player. It's a matter of confidence also, once he scores couple of goals we might see completely different player.

Someone compared Falcao to Forlan!


For XI I'd go;

De Gea
Rafael - Jones - Rojo - Shaw

Blind/Carrick

Fellaini/Herrera --- Di Maria

Mata/Rooney

Rooney/Wilson - van Persie/Falcao​

>_> Why not a simple 4-2-3-1? More width, and probably less complicated..

DDG
Rafael - Jones - Rojo - Shaw
Blind/Carrick - Herrera/Fellaini
Januzaj - Mata/Rooney - di Maria
RvP/Falcao/Wilson


​

Or heck, if we want more bostering in the midfield..

DDG
Rafael - Jones- Rojo - Shaw
Blind/Carrick
Fellaini - Herrera
Januzaj di Maria
Rooney


​

Our main problem is trying to accomodate all the 'star players' which won't really work out.

Your forgetting shaw is suspended. Rojo at lb and smalling and jones at cb.

Your forgetting shaw is suspended. Rojo at lb and smalling and jones at cb.

That's a temporary situation, was referring to the team in general. But yeah, for the next 2 games, Smalling and Rojo.
