Rooney in midfield and Herrera on the bench, sigh

At least we're sticking with 442, miles better than 532

I think it's fairly clear at this stage that LVG doesn't seem to rate Rafael.

Yes and it baffles me how someone can rate Valencia but not rafael. Valencia is just the anti-footballer.

He always talks about imbalance and picks team that are so unbalanced.

Blind instead of Januzaj would have been perfect, or even instead of one of 3 strikers.

He has been spot on the last few weeks, def got some inside knowledge into team selections so id say this isnt far off.

LVG got something against Herrara?? Surely deserves a start at this stage

One of the most puzzling things. As I always say, the manager knows more than us and sees them from Monday til Saturday. But the team seems far more balanced with Herrera in it. I'd have liked to see a midfield of Januzaj - Herrera - Blind - Di Maria.. with Rooney and Falcao/RVP up front. That would allow us to play a regular 4-4-2 or a diamond, or 4-3-3 and all our midfielders are interchangeable bar Blind.

Blatter · 31-01-2015 01:24PM

I prefer Rafael myself but it's really disruptive when a player can only play a handful of matches before getting injured again. We have enough of them in the backline as it is.

Picks too many attacking players that imbalances the team and also picks a formation that he himself said causes imbalance but creates more chances. I think he's going for broke now because he realises the fans aren't happy with the dross we've been served on almost a weekly basis since the start of the season.

........Blind.........
Rooney Di Maria
......Januzaj.......
RVP..........Rooney

Swap Januzaj with Rooney there and id say thats the midfield.

ScummyMan · 31-01-2015 01:43PM

Blind

-Herrera--Di Maria--

Mata

---Falcao----Rooney

Would absolutely love to see this.

Two Rooney's, I would take one off for Falcao.

31-01-2015 01:58PM

Rooney or RVP out for Herrera or Fellaini and while I'd still be pissed Januzaj was getting game time it'd be interesting to see.

markc91 · 31-01-2015 02:01PM

4-4-2!!!

irishfeen · 31-01-2015 02:02PM

I feel sorry for Herrera

bantee · 31-01-2015 02:03PM

Praise the baby Jesus, so glad it's 442

irishfeen · 31-01-2015 02:04PM

Whatever about Herrera... 4-4-2 must now stay!

Take away McNair and Smalling - that is a strong bench, which we haven't seen in a long long time.

thelad95 · 31-01-2015 02:16PM

Why is Herrera on bench

Nice to see Januzaj start though

Lord TSC · 31-01-2015 02:17PM

So long as Rooney is being shunted in to midfield, Herrera is going to be benched

Irish94 · 31-01-2015 02:20PM

7 years ago today, Ronaldo scored this phenomenal free-kick. I remember running outside out to my father, who was cutting the grass, to tell him he had to see it. Fantastic goal.

You are pissed that Januzaj is getting game time? Strange.

Excited why cause im a blind optimist... Hoping its januzi behind the strikers or we will could get killed in the middle.

Lord TSC · 31-01-2015 03:07PM

Deleting the reddit posts given they were obviously predicated on a path to illegal streams.

Beautifal ball by blind and what a finish
