afrodoc2: a 3-4-3 is suicidal, Mo hardly implements it, you are asking for a man Utd beating with that formation, Zlatan isn't fluid enough to swap with the wingers, etc |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 1:03am On Oct 23, 2016 |
AdisaOwala: yeah fellaini is like garba lawal. technically useless but tactically useful, that is why managers keep using them. But I don't think we need fellaini in this match though |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SailorXY: 1:26am On Oct 23, 2016 |
afrodoc2:3-4-3?  Why should Jose pick a new formation for such away game? Going toe to toe doesn't call for such vast experiment. |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 4:48am On Oct 23, 2016 |
SailorXY: I know it is a drastic change but if Jose is the tactically astute manager most people say he is then he should be able to implement different formations, if not in this match then in subsequent matches. This formation is one of the possible ones in which we get to field possibly our best 11 while having a solid defence line, attacking width from our full backs and 2 to 3 attackers that can drift wide or load the box depending on the situation. |

Sven-Goran Eriksson is ready to test Wayne Rooney’s
determination to stay at Manchester United with a mega-
money offer to play in China.
The Swede will make the proposal in the new year for the
England international to finish his playing days in the Far
East.
Owners of Eriksson’s Chinese Super League club Shanghai
SIPG have been monitoring his situation.
And they will tempt Rooney with a massive £80million deal
to switch his allegiance to the Far East.
The offer of a £500,000-a-week deal – plus commercial
bonuses – was made to Rooney and his advisors 10 months
ago.
But after lengthy discussions, Rooney decided he wanted to
continue his career for United and England.
However, the striker’s position has changed since Jose
Mourinho took over at Old Trafford with the new United boss
unable to guarantee his captain a regular starting place.
And with his England career now also at a crossroads,
Rooney’s head could well be turned by the mind-boggling
figures on offer mirrorfootball |

Speaking to Sky Sports News HQ, Mourinho said, when asked if he would ever be as ruthless as to sell the 30-year-old: "No, never. "I will never make that decision. A player of his stature, a player of his history in the club will never go to point where club or manager want to make that decision for him." |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 7:47am On Oct 23, 2016 |
"I put him [Rooney] on the bench for three matches in a row. That is hard for him, hard for me, so that is being ruthless, to put in my mind the interests of the team in front of the player, prestige, status. In this case even legend. To put on bench a player with the numbers he has for club and country is hard. "But as we were saying before, this is an industry where the people who leads, sometimes in a correct decision, sometimes not correct decisions, but in our mind the decisions we think is the best for the team." - Jose Mourinho |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 7:49am On Oct 23, 2016 |
"He (Rooney) cannot be jumping from No 6 to No 9, or No 9 to No 10, or No 9 to No 6. For me, he is an attacking player. What is an attacking player for me? For him, a 9 or 10. "Play No 6, play in midfield, not with me unless we need it and unless we ask him to do that, but with me, I want the ideas completely clear. He is a second striker, plays behind the striker or as a striker. That's what I think is Wayne Rooney." - Jose Mourinho |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 7:50am On Oct 23, 2016 |
"I think he's (Rooney) paying for his success. He had so many successes in his career. He brought his expectation levels to such a level that people probably think he has to perform in every match, every week, every month, every season at the same level. For me, that's a problem. "I think in this country it happens to everyone, it is just your nature, you build people, you kill people, you build again and you destroy again! And I think it is just the nature of the business, especially in football." - Jose Mourinho |

“It’s been a slow start for Pogba. The difficult thing is everyone looks at the price tag and everything which goes with it. Then you go back to basics and look at what kind of player he is. “He isn’t a Lionel Messi — a dribbler or a 40- goals-a-season man. He’s someone who can be the engine room of the team. “Good players rise to the top and he has to just find himself at United. He has the capacity to do it, it’s up to him now.” - Frank Lampard |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 8:00am On Oct 23, 2016 |
“Paul is a fantastic player and obviously there is more to come from him. He showed in different games that he is talented, he has been like that since he was first here, and he has settled back into the team. “Ibrahimovic is another one, I think a lot has been said about him, the arrogant side of him, but he has been fantastic. “They have both been brilliant. They have walked into the dressing room, and it is comfortable for them to do that, like I say, the team spirit has been brilliant and they are settling really well.” - Ashley Young |
| Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 8:02am On Oct 23, 2016 |
“I think he (Pogba) has to play more advanced. When you look at how he played at Juventus, he played in a 3-5-2 system which allowed him to go and play where he wanted to. Most of his play was on the left-hand side. “But in this team, as long as he’s got the protection behind with a Herrera or a Fellaini, then I think he should be able to wander anywhere he wants, around Ibrahimovic. Not just in a central position. “It was great to see him score the other day. He’s still learning – potentially he could be a great, great player. That’s why they spent so much money for him.” - Paul Ince |

.................................. De Gea............................ ........... Baily............. Smalling.......... Blind........... ....... Val.....Herrera.....Carrick.......Pogba....Shaw.... .....................Zlatan.............Rashford................... I will be more comfortable with this formation... I dnt see Kante n Matic controlling d midfield with Carrick there... Herrera will do the dirty work while Carrick will clean up. Pogba will just do what he did at Juventus in dat position. It looks good on paper though.... |

"Paul Pogba was playing as a No 10 because of the way Liverpool set up. "They are a high pressing team and what that meant is that when Manchester United got the ball they would have to beat the press, so they'd look to go long themselves. "All the players had the same idea. They wanted to play the ball up to Zlatan Ibrahimovic and to Pogba so they could beat that high press from Liverpool. "I look at the Liverpool game and he played with his back to goal a lot because of the tactical side of things and Jose Mourinho wanting to beat the press. "The Chelsea game will be different because Pogba will play in a slightly deeper role and I believe that suits him more. "Pogba is at his best when he has the freedom to go forwards, a little bit like Yaya Toure when he was at his best. For me, that's the best role for Pogba. "With the energy that he's got he needs that room for him to move into because when he gets into his stride there aren't many who can keep up with him. "We've seen in his recent performances where he plays deeper, he can be very instrumental in the performances of Manchester United. "What you'll find is that a lot of the Chelsea defenders will be tied up by Ibrahimovic because of the physical threat that he brings. "So what you'll see then is that Pogba will try to get into the spaces around Nemanja Matic and N'Golo Kante to go and support Ibrahimovic. So he's running on the opposition goal." - Danny Higginbotham |

"First of all, in some of your mouths, he (Pogba) goes from the worst player in the Premier League to a great player in 48 hours. "I am not specifically saying it is you. I say media, especially the Einsteins. We know he is a very good player. We know he needs some time to show his potential. "I know Italian football very well. I know teams play completely different from the Premier League. I am not saying we are better but we are different. "Different in the intensity, the number of touches on the ball, everything is different and he needs time to adapt. "He is a self-confident boy. He was not depressed because some people said he was a bad player. He was calm. It is always nice for a player to score, to score at home and especially to score such a beautiful goal." - Jose Mourinho |
