Dis game looks like a draw game. Mcnair should've started in the CB position with blind playing in midfield alongside morgan and herrera, and nd dis botwitch jackson is good enough to man our LB.

Dis 4 3 3 line up wey i suggest so no bad naa

Manchester United missed chances to blame for Newcastle
loss - Van Gaal

PA Sport
January 12, 2016
Facebook Twitter
.
.
.
.Louis van Gaal insisted
Manchester United had only themselves to blame after twice squandering leads to draw 3-3 at struggling Newcastle. The Dutchman saw his side race 2-0 ahead and after being
pegged back, go 3-2 up with just
11 minutes remaining before
unlikely hero Paul Dummett
rescued a point for the Magpies
on an eventful evening at St
James' Park.
Van Gaal, whose side have now
slipped to sixth place in the
Premier League table after a run
of just one victory in eight
attempts, said: "I am very
disappointed, but we have to
blame ourselves because we
could have finished this match
much earlier. There were big
chances for [Jesse] Lingard and
[Marouane] Fellaini and we didn't
do that. I have said that also to
my players. "The referee makes a decision on
a penalty that maybe has a big
question mark over it, but we
could have finished the game by
ourselves much earlier.
"There was the deflected shot
from Dummett to equalise, but
okay, that is happening and that
is luck for Newcastle United. But
you have to force the luck and
finish the chances when you get
them when they are so big.''
Van Gaal gave credit to Newcastle
for their style of play and insisted
his team was able to attack more
freely than in recent weeks
because the Magpies did the
same.
Van Gaal said: "Newcastle was
attacking. They wanted to attack,
and that is the difference. I am
saying that all the time, but you
are doubting my words and my
vision.
"When you see two teams who
want to attack, then you see a
game like this. But when you see
a match that only one team
wants to defend and wastes time
and frustrates the opponent...''
Rooney's ninth-minute penalty
got United on their way and they
looked to be coasting when
Jesse Lingard made it 2-0,
although Georginio Wijnaldum
gave the Magpies hope three
minutes before the break.
Aleksandar Mitrovic levelled from the spot with 67 minutes gone,
but Rooney looked to have won
it with a fine 79th-minute strike
until defender Dummett lashed
home a last-gasp equaliser with
the help of a deflection off Chris
Smalling.
Referee Mike Dean gave two
penalties on the night -- one to
Manchester United for handball
against Chancel Mbemba and the
other to Newcastle for Smalling's
tussle with Mitrovic -- both of
them contested by the respective
managers, and might have given
at least one more.
Van Gaal added: "In my opinion,
there is no discussion about the
penalties. I have seen the video
and you see Mbemba is putting
his hand to the ball and that was
why Fellaini could not head the
ball. He did it with purpose and
consciously, so that is a penalty.
"The heavyweight wrestling
between Mitrovic and Smalling,
you can clearly see that he
[Mitrovic] is pushing the head of
Smalling to the ground. Then it is
about heavyweight champions
and who is the heavyweight
champion at the end of it, and
that was Smalling in his eyes. I
cannot understand that.'

Lingard is not average, he needs to work on his strength, he falls way too easily when wrestled for de ball with an opponent.
I think we lost the game due to smalling having a bad game, nd don't 4get dat lastnite was de only time we've played a different system from the possesion based game for almost a year+
lingaard missed a great chance to make it 3-1 but i'm very much convinced that we lost de match due to bad defending.
.
.
.
.POSITIVES: though i didn't like de idea of a lower class team lyk newcastle dominating us, i was excited by our attacking play lastnite, herrera was excellent with his forward pass, how i wish martiaL played on de left side, we would've caused NewcastLe more problems. Rooney looked very sharp lastnite, his performance last nite even got me thinking if truly the possession based game was the real reason why he has been poor. And not to 4get DDG is WorLd cLass..
.
.
.We may forgive L.V.G and his red army if they would send the scoucers to de cleaners next week.
Till then

I heard schweini didn't travel with de squad to tyneside, would be expecting either of carrick or herrera alongside schneirdelin.

Quote me next time.
So I'll explain my thoughts betters
there's nothing there to explain every average football fan knows that in the second striker position fellaini is de better player while in de CM postition herrera is.....

.Make we jxt leave dis yeye arguement discuss our match against newcastle 2nyte.

SIRcumalot:
If we were beating teams with that style you'll love it too.
I should point out that our longest run win streak last season featured fellani in the team.

What does Herrera give us is he a better player than bastian or Morgan in the pivot ?
Is he creative enough to play as a "10" ?
yes fellaini featured and herrera didn't, abi? Herrera despite playing in a deeper postition had an impresive stat [if M not mistaken] compared to dat of fellaini who played as a second striker. Herrera is a material of 3 midfielders or a midfield diamond.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by weedtaker: 4:52pm On Jan 12, 2016
SIRcumalot:
None taking,
Your valuation of herrera is based on one game ?
why? I'm just pointing out the fact dat he was the best player in the best game that we've played dis season.
Am saying let Depay ride this new found confidence into the newcastle game since Mata and Herrera have not been playing well for awhile.
new found confidence ma foot the earlier you admit dat depay is shyte de better, herrera hasn't played much dis season but anytime he is called upon he gives his all, nd moreover our problem is not herrera or mata the whole squad apart 4rm martial nd blind plays de usuall side way pass nd slow pace football, so i really don't know how de talk of herrera and mata not playing well when de team in general 've been playing de same way, nd if someone is to be dropped for memphis dat person should be fatboi
Everything isn't LVG fault.
i once shared dis ur opinion but not again, everything is LvG's fault
If you include leicster city maybe he gets in ?
i don't get you.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by weedtaker: 4:35pm On Jan 12, 2016
O! Someone just said he prefers fellaini to herrera.
. .
Nd i even think say na better arguement we wan do here seff..
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by weedtaker: 4:25pm On Jan 12, 2016
No offence, but saying herrera or mata should be dropped for depay is plain stupidity, nd yes herrera would thrive under mourinho or pep, our best performance dis season i guess was against everton, nd guess what? herrera was motm in dat game!, dats to show you guys how good he is. Herrera would get into any top 4 epl side starting eleven, he's easily one of the best centre midfielder in de country. Dem no de argue dis one seff

Giggs cant be worse. Becoz with him, at least the team will be allowed to attack and take risks. That way, we'd at least be 90% guaranteed of beating the likes of Norwich and Bournemouth. And we wont be relying on last minute PKs to beat Sheffield at home.
okay o

Valencia is a shîtty team with shittîer players.
And Valencia is not United.

We ve some good players here. And we can still make the top 3 and a good FA Cup run albeit with the right selections and tactics. But if u're okay with watching Boring football for 90 mins every match day, den no wahala.

If not, i'd say we cut our losses, sack LVG and allow Giggs manage the team till May b4 we can now look to sign Pep. Fûck Mourinho still!!
valencia is currently shitty, but not that shitty to go almost 8league games without a win. Nd how sure are you giggs won't be worse than van gaaL?

Well to each his own opinion!!
If we cant get Pep, den i'd rather we stick with Giggs. Fûck Mourinho!!
i hope say you de see garry neville? One of England coaches and a pundit, him never win league match since him take over at valencia, even shitty sociedad wey sack moyes beat valencia 2day.. Make scholes still de dia de talk anyhow, i go take scholes opata yarns serious when him enter management. For now giggs no be option at all. Make him go anoda team go show us wat he's made of.

AdeLaNa1:
undecided

Roy Keane has managed in Sunderland and Ipswich town. Neither of these teams ve the kind of transfer budgets Madrid and United ve.
We'll neva know if Giggs is up for the job unless we try him. And now is the best chance we've of doing dat. Let him take over and lets see wat he can do in half a season. Then we can proceed from there nxt summer!!
trophyless for 2years and u wan still do experiment, we look lyk swansea 4 ur eye?, Madrid 've a star studed squad, benitez sack wasn't becuz of his record, his record wasn't bad at all to warrant a sack, as 4 dat madrid team, even giggs would take dem to de UCL quaters and make de top 3 in dat league. Same can't be said in de BPL dey're a lot of things he [giggs] needs to learn, management is not only tactics, de're oda qualities dat makes a decent manager,
i don't see de reason why man.city despite having a good coach in pellegrini who has won dem titles nd is still doing well would be asked to leave the club just for pep guardiola.. Well i think dat shows Ambition [ambition to go toe to toe with de Elites of europe nd conquer de bpl jst lyk fergie did] something a club as massive as united should be known for.. So you folks wanting giggs to take de mantle when a manager lyk mourinho z available, 've either come to terms dat man.u 're jxt an europa league team lyk spurs, dat would aspire to be lyk man.city just lyk[david moyes] said. Or 're jxt clueless nd don't just really know what dey want.. lyk [L.V.G] no offence o grin

Of the 3. Ramos performed better

I have never said Boateng is better than Ramos. My point has always been Boateng is one of the best defenders in Europe and definitely better than ALL Central defenders in the EPL. Both asserions were proven right

If the awards are for trophies won then all Barca players would be first 11

Ronaldo went trophyless, Suarez won 5 trophies. Hames went trophyless Ikedia won EPL best player and the league
okay okay you win, but what about Performance? Boateng played more games [if i'm not mistaken], so did ramos out-performed him despite playing less games?
