West Ham play physical and brutish football. Mata will be easily subdued on that wing; and to play well he'll move into the number 10 position clogging it up for Mhiki and leaving Valencia to defend and attack all by himself. If I'm a coach, Mata will never be on my wings. I'd rather Rash or Lingard start there. Or even put Valencia there and use TFM as the RB.
If we play to our strength, West ham will be camped in their half for majority of the game. I see Miki more as a RW than Mata so I'd interchange their positions.
For all of this, Rooney is gonna start, most definitely.

What do Guys think about this Lineup against Westham?!

I do not trust Pogba in a two-man midfield.. he'll easily saunter/stray/drift forward and leave his partner exposed..
maybe if it were against a team that'll defend 100% then it'll be better but against Westham with runners in d park,, I'll prefer a midfield three.. Lingard in place of Mkhi,, Mata drops in d hole ahead of Herrera and Pogba while Lingard moves to the flank.. we just might have to sacrifice creativity for compactness..

Pogba should never play in a two man midfield against teams that can be threatening. Not wise at all.

The only possible change in the probable Lineup is Rooney replacing Martial.

Those who ain't expecting the paring of Herrera and Pogba in Today's Match would be disappointed.

All in all..... what matters most is the maximum Points, which I believe is non-negotiable!

Make El Fatso start,there's always room for interchanging position amidst play.

Valencia should remain at RB jare.

If Fatso starts and Mata and Mhiki must start too, then Mourinho has to go with the same formation he used against Fenerbache.

But guys, don't you see we badly need a quality winger especially seeing we've none presently? Our counter-attacks died or terribly dipped with the departure of CR7 and Co. It's no coincidence that the likes of Barca, Madrid and Bayern have had lethal and exciting wingers in recent years who formed deadly partnerships that have catapulted them to glory.

Barca has Neymar and Messi flanking Suarez.
Madrid with Ororo and Bale.
Bayern with Robben and Ribery.

When these set of deadly flying wingers are on the pitch, they stretch their opponents, wear them out and have their opponents doubling up to contain them. United have none. Martial is terrible this season.

Pacy winger like Valencia has zero skills to destroy an opponent one-on-one. Good and skillful wingers are the architect of most counter-attacks. They make runs to start off the counter-attacks. A good example is CR7's third goal for Madrid against Athletico. See the way Bale made a run and Isco instinctively whipped the ball to him and he ran with the ball all the way into the 18-yard box of Atletico before squaring for Ororo who also matched his pace to be there on time to bury the chance. Now imagine if Rooney or Mata was Bale. They will just take one step and then turn around and kill a counter-attack that could have resulted in a goal. I doubt that apart from Martial, there's any other United winger that could successfully skin a full-back alive in a one-on-one position. Our attacks have dipped with our lack of quality wingers. Lingard with all his pace has little intelligence to beat opponents with it.

If I was made the United coach today, a Robben-esque winger along with a top striker will be my first priority.

@Sinizia,, counter attack's definitely not one of strong weapon anymore.. we're just dead in that aspect,, these days we prefer building slowly from the back and while I won't complain since we're creating decent chances,, one must admit that some crazy,, neatly executed counter attacking goals are just orga5mic to watch..


we've tried getting wingers after CR.. from those who never came good (Obertan Tosic Bebe) to recent frauds like DiMaria and Depay.. and we've spent quite alot in recent years but dem just decide to be useless.. this is why we seem to be lacking in the wings ,, there's a dearth of useful natural wingers in this team and the coach's just gotta make do with the available players.. its not like we didn't try getting decent wing players..

that said,, presently,, who're the fast footed natural wingers you'll rather want in this team right now?? let's see if they'll be available..

about today's lineup..
we've tinkered and experimented all season long,, we just de bench anyhow,, isn't it about time we started having a level of consistency with our first eleven??
those who played four days ago didn't fare bad altogether,, so aside DeGea returning and maybe Herrera starting in place of Carrick (who should be rested for midweek),, me I'm OK with everyone else keeping their place..

I've watched countless counter-attacks under SAF, but Fresh off my memory is one match, I think against Reading (I'm not quiet sure), we were leading 1-o courtesy of Ororo. Then Reading gathered momentum towards the ending of that match and were pressing us like Agege bread trying to equalize. Then around the 90th minute, Ororo, Rooney and Tevez combined together to conjure up this brilliant counter that started right in front of our 18-yard box to end up in Reading's net. Immediately Ororo latched onto the through-ball heading for Reading's 18-yard box, I was just clapping coz I knew it was gonna end up in the net. Pure artistry footie.

Then there is this one against Assanal; let me not bore you with epistle, just take a look below:



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-b2We0-gKQ

Ororo once again combining with 3-lungs Ji Sung Park and Wazza. Pure unadulterated counter. cheesy

Obertan!! Kai. Mehn, United has paraded rubbish in recent years. grin Bebe should probably never be mentioned in United folklore.

that said,, presently,, who're the fast footed natural wingers you'll rather want in this team right now?? let's see if they'll be available..

Honestly, bro, I don't know of any available one for now. The quality ones are either old and injured, or hooked to rich and successful clubs.

Another counter-attacking goal from Ororo en route to UCL finals 08/09. Madrid really stole our gem. They left the likes of Anderson and stole our diamond.
