Goes the same way 99.9% of the time knew he would not score.
I just had that feeling...since he hasn't been in the team for a while

Three!It was an awful performance...2 back to back defeats...
I don't blame the STRs today, RVP was reduced to shots outside the box as Fellaini was playing up top for some strange reason. And Rooney playing in CM was always going to be to the detriment of the team.Our players have forgotten have to finish

So did I mate that's why it did not make any sense to me!I actually initially liked the idea...i thought we were going to be going more direct i.e more crosses the box
But we still kept keeping some boring possession....
That's the problem with this system with Rooney in CM and Fellaini there both more 10s/STRs than CMs and drift forward. I lost count the amount of times Herrera was left stranded and frustrated with no one in CM to pass to. Don't get me started on Valencia, the most frustrating player at the club and not in a good way! And we need a different type of STR one who can stretch defences like Rooney when he plays up there.We need to learn to change the system against a completely defensive side. The striker is too isolated and we need width on both sides, Valencia should be stuck to the touchline but he's too worried about defensive shape when it shouldn't be an issue against a solitary striker. A wide 4-2-3-1 would force them to defend more crosses or stretch them wider and create gaps, and would get the best out of Rooney or Mata as a #10
We need some strengthening in the summer! We have to stop playing Rooney and Fellaini in CM. We need to stop playing Valencia at RB. We need a top CB. We need cover at LB so when Shaw is injured and Carrick we don't play Blind at LB when he should be covering for Carrick.No Carrick no party
We haven't lost three games in a row since 2003 apparently...
