That'll work when we play Alkmaar as we can pass the Dutchies on the left hand side.

With Shaw overlapping you might be onto a winner.

At least we don’t have these stupid issues with our right side.

Sad looking team. I will reserve my judgement like I have always said after 10 games.

Let them change positions during the game so during different bits of the game each will be on the left.

Tactically, I’m envisaging something like you can see at 2:00 here:

Martial has looked good up front so far and James has looked very good from the left.

Rashford did okay against Chelsea, he was effective although still wasteful. He really needs to improve his decision making, he can't keep shooting from 35 yards, running down blind alleys and messing up basic passes.

Right now, I'd play James left, Martial up front and Rashford on the right, purely because the former have been very effective in their roles.

Always good value were Mr Cholmondley-Warner and Greyson. Could rely on them to give sound advice on a great many subjects.

op nailed it

i have also asked myself the same question with all 3 being better from the left and at least 2 wanting to play as cf.

during preseason (i believe vs inter) we lined up with:
------------james-------------
----rashford------martial----

even though James was in the #10 position is role was not primarily to create but to disrupt opposition and trigger the high press which was very effective. Martial and Rashford will split and go wide when we out of possession but storm towards oppos box as so we regained possession.

this worked because of the high press, something ole appears to have abandoned

Then we’ve got nobody on the left!

Wait a minute...

I wouldn’t say Rashford is more effective on the left. I think he’s equally ineffective through the middle.

Admin, please would you effect what is obviously a very simple code change which will allow me to five star this and future articles that I write.

OP should be hanged for putting Pereira in that midfield... The left side looks kosher though

Cheer up - it’s a similar set-up to our front 6 in the 08 CL Final:

Hargreaves Scholes Carrick Ronaldo
Tevez Rooney

Well out of those three the obvious answer is James.

Not 100% convinced yet, but the other two just aren't up to a league campaign - not this league anyway.
