SAF should come in the dressing room and give them his famous hairdryer treatment

Every single fan can see this formation doesn't work. Not got a clue what LVG is seeing here.

This system doesn't work because it means no wingplay, no overlapping, and our CM simply isn't strong enough to compensate.

yet last season 442 didnt work either

its the players not the system

Darren Fletcher should not be playing for Man United. I hope his bottom falls out

HOW can you criticise the attacking players when they have ZERO service from the defence? They can't pass a ball for shít/

Apparently west ham have signed song from Barca, not sure if its a loan or permanent, either way that is a travesty considering our desperate need of a player like him.

Van Persie doing 0. I love Di Maria already!

My god is it frustrating watching our defence. Blackett has the ball at half way line Di Maria free 15 yards in front of him, I know let's boot the ball aimlessly up the field.

We need a midfielder to dictate the tempo ala Scholes. Simple passes, dropping deep to give the defenders options and then playing forward passes.

Take RVP and Young off for Adnan and Anderson. Blackett to LB Adnan RM Di Maria LM Mata behind Rooney and Fletcher and Ando in the middle.
Give Fletch 10 minutes to actually do something. If he doesn't take him off too.

That's all your subs done 10 mins in, risky

It's very much the players.. Some we expect to be leaders are not showing it, and inspiring the rest...
Maybe Di Maria's bravado might spark the others long term...

20% - Both Burnley & Man Utd played more than 20% of their passes long (+35 yards) in the first half (2014-15 PL avg is 12%). Agricultural.

now there's a player who would of done well for us, had an outstanding relationship on the pitch with rvp as well.

Lets just agree that both teams are awful

No link between defenders to the front men, need someone as somebody said earlier like Scholes willing to do the simple stuff, take passes play it forward to the more talented players. Hopefully Blind can do something like this.

Mata has largely been ineffective because Rooney is also operating in his space, this was part of the problem I felt would happen playing all of rrooney, mata and RVP centrally. Rooney showed some nice touches but has equally shown some terrible ones, very inconsistent. RVP looks rusty but he has still had the best chance this half. Great save from the keeper. I'm not sure about all these long balls from defence either.
