Bleating Lamb

Falcao seems to be furthest forward with Fellaini on right and Rooney central behind Falcao.Di Maria playing diagonal balls to Fellaini.

Di maria playing really well so far. Controlling the game but need to start getting some efforts on goal.

Doesn't have Rooney in his way in midfield and he isn't playing with his back to the ball.

Is there actually any need for this. :rolleyes: You're gay, we get it.

Falcao is still coming too deep for the ball. Really shouldn't be his job.

Mantis Toboggan

This is awful dour stuff!

Shots on target? Our usual number racked up? :rolleyes:

He is reveling in any mistake United make.

That last Di Maria cross has made his week :pac:

eagle eye

Nodding off watching this. No movement or speed of passing in this United team. Just dreadful to watch.

It should be just like watching Blackburn

kstand

Same shapeless toothless crap. No belief, dreadful passing and crossing. Nothing new under Van Gaal.

Fuhrer

What does it take for Rooney to get dropped, awfulness

We are far more exciting to watch and that is not saying much!

ben.schlomo

This is the sort of dross that kills the FA Cup nowadays.

MythicalMadMan

Di maria puts in a bad cross - thats not a 60mil cross.
Rooney puts in a bad ball - no movement for him I'm sure he is frustrated

Gotta love that he can do no wrong with the commentators :rolleyes:

Thats a very unfair comment, this is the exact same dross United play in the league

Classic Kevin Davies

How are Utd playing such poor dour football with the calibre of players at the club.

Awful to watch

True dat. Apologies

UnitedIrishman

That's a typical Kevin Davies challenge if I ever saw one.

Butt they're not competing for the league tbf

ankles

Why the reluctance to get balls in to the centre, take men on and try a shot. WE slow down to a funereal pace or hang up long high slow floating crosses that gives the defence about 20 minutes to get set

MythicalMadMan

4 times we have been a yard too short or too long with passes to being in on goal it aint that bad need a goal to open it up alright though

If not for major ****ups against Leciester, Burnley and Stoke, United would be second.

A ponderous image.

LuckyGent88

That was just pathetic from Herrera.

Mantis Toboggan

Herrara has been poor so far.

Vicxas

I thought the Villa/ Leicester match was bad yesterday, but this is like watching Ice melt.....

Fuhrer

Thats three times in quick succession a United player with time and space has hit a pass to absolutely no one.

UnitedIrishman

Some of our passing has been woeful. Couple of decent chances without having proper attempts on goal.

Nothing wrong with watching ice melt!!

Mars Bar

Rooney has been so much more productive up front.

ankles

Falcao is not occupying the defenders enough. THat said I think we are at times a yard of a pass away

Tbf there are a bunch of lucky points gained that could be brought up if the reverse argument was being made.

Bleating Lamb

Herrera hasn't got into game at all yet.

Depends who its melting off

FutureGuy

Hmm. We should take off Herrera and put Rooney in Mid. Put on another defender and play 5 at the back with wingbacks.

We also need to run less up front.

Obvious.

Lord TSC

For all of the cries to play Rooney & Herrera in proper positions, we've hardly changed from the form we were displaying for weeks now.

Liam O

United just bring teams to their level, it doesn't matter how good/bad they are. Every game goes the same way.

Put Fellani up front on his own and put Di Maria at center back

shadowcomplex

I'd bring Wilson in for falcao

Mantis Toboggan

United didn't manage a shot on target in the first half.

Terrible stuff.

Van Gaal, tactical genius. Bores the opposition into awfulness.

At least Rooney has made runs into the channels.

The Moldy Gowl

So the great white hope isn't all that.

Surprising

sky88

At least the movement up front looks better
