    Not particularly on the left wing, just kinda behind Van Persie to the left. I just think that if Kagawa plays tomorrow it won't be in a 4-4-2 formation, It would have to be a 4-4-3 in my opinion.

    Anyone think that Kagawa should be a guaranteed starter if he keeps playing the way he played against Everton?

    Kagawa and De Gea were our best players that night. Shinji must play.

    Nani should be dropped and Rooney deserves to be dropped but needs to play.

    Seeing how Hazard has hit the ground running makes me wish we'd dumped Nani and gone all out to get Hazard.

    The same Fulham who won 5-0 last week! :pac: Risky tactics but could be fun! :D

    I can't see Vidic with his new haircut without thinking he's Michael Rapaport.
    (took ages to find him, as I couldn't remember his name, or anything he's in)

    To be fair Nani had one bad game, we all know what he is capable of and he is certainly one of the best wingers in the world. I think it is his decision making that lets him down. I'd much rather have Nani in the team then Hazard to be honest.

    Really?

    Based on what we've seen of Hazard for Chelsea so far, he looks the real deal.

    I can't really judge him off two games. I'll judge him when he plays on a rainy, wet Monday night in Upton Park or the Britannia etc.

    180 minutes?

    Nani is up there with the best on his day and to be fair over the last three seasons that has been more often than not.

    I know he was unbelievably bad last Monday and I would agree with him being dropped tomorrow, but really I think the fresh bad performance along with Hazards impressive start over a couple of games is clouding your judgement or at least making you give a rash judgement.


    Calling for Nani to be sold seems totally illogical. He, along with Rooney over the last three seasons, has probably been our most potent attacking player.

    Luckily your not the manager. You would swap probably the two best wingers in the league for a player who has played 3 games in the league. Can only presume you didnt watch football before this season.

    Okay Tony V was strectching it a bit, but Nani for Hazzard in a heart beat. Nani is brillaint no doubt, but he needs to show a bit more interest and desire in games, Hazzard will be Ronaldo / Messi class.

    Been watching football since 1976, swapping Tony V was a bit of an over reaction, but Hazzard is a player we should have got to pull the strings in midfield, he and Shinji, would have made a lovely couple.....

    I really thought you were a good poster when you first posted but its like someone else has started using your account since the Everton game. Nani has been our best player for 3 seasons imo. Hazard has played 3 games and 2 of them against Wigan and Reading where Chelsea are going to be comfortable. So your saying after 2 weeks into the season you would get rid of Nani after a bad game you have a short memory. It wasnt Nani or Hazard it was Kagawa or Hazard and im happier with Kagawa. Nani who has talked about his desire and supposedly willing to drop his wage demands to stay. Hazard a media whore with a money grabbing agent who will be dreaming of Madrid soon enough. I know who i would rather. Not to forget Nani is a better player who is about to enter his prime.

    Same as you have, but if you cannot spot a prolific talent when you see it instantly that is your issue....

    No need for the personal stuff.

    I would swap Nani for Hazard. Hazard's class is obvious.

    That's my view.

    So how do you know he didn't play the best two games of his life?
    Nani has had games where he has looked like the best player in the world. This is a harsh word, but I think it' retarded to want to swap one of United's best players for a player who you've only seen play a couple of times. Stinks of overreaction from Monday night.

    Looks like you're talking to yourself Baz!

    I dunno how anyone can make a judgement on 180 minutes of football.

    If he hadnt of got fouled twice when he wasnt really going anywhere and got the two penalties I think hed be so so ,
    I was amazed he got man of the match in their first game . Then I realised he gave a simple through ball to ivanovic and got kicked in the box assisting two goals .
    I honestly dont think he set the place alight . Did what was expected of him but Id hold out on the swap deals just yet. See how he fares in non cannon fodder games .Sure even torres scored a goal in one of them games.
    On another note we are just out of the relagation zone. If we win tomorrow and liverpool lose Id say we are safe. We have a better run in for the next 36 games.

    You guys are forgetting the other side of the equation.

    We've watched Nani for years.

    Hazard cost £32m plus £6m in fees and we tried to sign him (so Fergie agrees he's class - It's not just us "deciding something after two games")

    I would like to see Nani replaced. It's gas how people call you a good poster until you challenge the status quo and criticise one of United's sacred cows.

    Well i didnt hear you voicing your opinion on replacing Nani until after Monday. Nani is our best winger its mind boggling how anyone would want to replace him. I woul rather see Young and Valencia go first.

    Hazard is class on the pitch alright.

    I think he is not considered class away from the pitch with some of his antics pre transfer and the way the deal fell through was not down to a lack of effort on Uniteds part. Bu i'd doubt Chelsea fans care of that United fans would if the deal came off in Uniteds favour.

    People are going to respond in a negative way if a player that has played a big part at United, a guy who wants to be at United, conducts himself well off the field is just written off and wished away because he played poorly on monday.

    That is harsh on Nani.

    all Uniteds Euro 2012 players struggled to play well on Monday while good ol Hazard had the summer off to get himself ready for his debut. Hopefully the team will respond well tomorrow.

    @Jame Gumb

    Don't you think it's bit of an over reaction to want Nani replaced? Just asking now, or have you had the same opinion of him for some time?

    He's a very good player when he wants to be, although admittedly infuriating at times. It'd take quite an outlay of cash on a new player to replace him like for like.

    You admitted you have only seen Hazard as much as us. So your claiming after 3 games he will be as good as Ronaldo/Messi i dont often lol. Players can go either way look at Robinho and Pato. Pato looked unbelievable years ago whats he doing now.
