Not the player VivaITK just told me but interesting nonetheless.
VivaITK please share
Increasingly thinking we need a striker more than anything. Just no cutting edge. 7 points is the absolute bare minimum we should have from our three games so far, and we only have two goals. Very worrying.

LvG said today that he didn't think he needs one, but could be bluffing. Doesn't tend to mind you.

Yeah, he isn't. Which is why Herrera's goals from the middle are so important.
Sigh. Annoying when literally everyone seems to think he should be in the team but van Gaal. Odd.
By Linius Go To PostIs it just me or does that gif disappear after one loop?That's the FBI

No I do actually get it. Andrew doesn't ideally fit in to this team in the formation we currently play. He's not cautious enough for the deep mid position and not attacking enough for the AMC position.
Or at least that's his thinking and I don't think it's necessarily errant thinking. He'd have a better idea than us.

I saw a girl and then it vanished - never to return. But slaent has been like shit today anyway.

He certainly is attacking enough for me. Takes shots, which Mata and Januzaj seem so loathe to do sometimes.
Man I really hate my internet connection in this shit hole. Uploading a video of 1:47 minutes is taking me fucking 45 minutes. If you think about the fact that they have fiberglass in most of this city except for the city center... :O
By Coldnoodle Go To PostLLORIIIIIIIS
Will be disappointed if we replace De Gea with him.
But pleased if we replace Romero with him.
What a world.
Fuck me seven of the next eight games are really hard
Swansea A

Southampton A
Sunderland H
Arsenal A
Everton A
Man City H

Sunderland the only one I'm confident we'll get three points from. Fuck me.

Imagine being PSV. Two draws after three games. Feyenoord is coming up next week. The pressure is on. Football is back.
Really need six points from the next two games before the international break. Gotta win all those 'easy on paper' games to get a comfortable lead by the time shit goes down.

By Linius Go To PostI'm just happy Lloris seems to be the clear favourite if a DDG replacement is needed.
I'm not happy he's favourite but he's still better than Cillesen who is proper average.
By Carbonox Go To PostShaqiri looks like a square. I love him already.looooool
By n8 Go To PostHe certainly is attacking enough for me. Takes shots, which Mata and Januzaj seem so loathe to do sometimes.Maybe that's why they're in the team, because they're following instructions not to take pot shots?
Either way, I don't think it's a case of taking more shots which is the problem right now.
Honestly we've played 3 games without a centre forward pretty much. That's the crux of the issue.

As long as you guys keep that thought (more importantly Woodward) I'm living the dream.

Yup. I ask you all to watch Rooney's movement off the ball. It's both predictable and half-hearted.

I know they're in the team because they're following instructions. I don't particularly like those instructions, especially when Depay has carte blanche to do so but coming in from an angle where it may well be harder to score from.
Agree on that though. Too many times we'd surge forward and Rooney is by the halfway line behind our three auxiliary attackers. Not sure what can be done about that though unless Rooney gets played behind and Hernandez up top.
By Bold One Go To Postare these United's fixtures?
Yep. I reckon we'll get 10 points from the next 24 available.
By Carbonox Go To PostShaqiri looks like a square. I love him already.lmao
anyone know how shit/good he did on his first game? I understand if nobody knows since nobody would want to watch Stoke vs Norwich
By Laboured Go To PostYup. I ask you all to watch Rooney's movement off the ball. It's both predictable and half-hearted.
Exactly. We need a dynamic forward. Somebody who can lead the line. Rooney is just , dare I say it, a ghost. The fat fucker should be in his prime but instead he must be sat at home watching a Midsummer Murders box set.
I can no longer watch anything to do with Euro 2004. The pain is great. He was so exciting that it wasn't even funny.
By n8 Go To PostYep. I reckon we'll get 10 points from the next 24 available.Stop being a fanny. We're better than all but two of those teams.
By dark_prinny Go To PostWait, FF is a United supporter now?Prinny pls. I said we "WOULD", as in Barca would win all those games.
Congrats on the 3 points m8 what a season this will be

By Hitch Go To PostWhy on earth would anybody want to watch a programme inspired by the life of Lenny Henry?
Sadism.
By Vivalabanter Go To PostStop being a fanny. We're better than all but two of those teams.
We're better than Newcastle as well. Didn't get the win. Like you say, we won't when we're playing without a centre forward.
By n8 Go To PostYep. I reckon we'll get 10 points from the next 24 available.actually think this team is equiped to handle the bigger tougher teams, its smaller, middling teams that seem to stump us.
LVG is a big game manager, plus, Marouane is due to return, and no, scoring headers doesnt = clank
