Isn't Kagawa's natural position on the bench?

Ho ho ho

[The Nal]

Giggs. Fucking hell. He was great. 40 years of age tomorrow. Mind boggling.

And yeah Kagawa. Hopefully Moyes gets the message now.

Nothing has changed though, how do you fit Rooney, RVP and kagawa in there best positions in the team?

The only way is to play Rooney in the scholes role and he doesn't want that, even though he would be perfect.

In reality kagawa will be out on the wing if the other 2 play.

don't worry, Moyes'll have them back to playing shit by the weekend.

Actually, I'm not sure I want that ... cos if you win big I reckon AVB gets to walk.

I still don't see why they can't play Rooney and RVP up front and Kagawa behind them in the hole? Carrick behind him and two wingers. Diamond shape midfield with two up top. Whats wrong with that?

They can alternate of course like Rooney, Ronaldo and RVN and later Tevez did.

Considering how shit Man U's wingers have been I don't think they necessarily have to play 2. City often play Navas as a winger on one side with Silva or Nasri as a CAM and Fernandinho/Yaya behind. Man U could do one winger, Kagawa as a CAM and Fellaini/Carrick behind.

At home or against or poor side away then maybe. I think away against a decent side that midfield would end up getting overwhelmed in the middle of the park and Carrick would end up with far too much to do.

So Man U fans want a midfield that won't get overrun, a creative CAM to play, 2 wingers and 2 strikers?

Unless you can get permission to stick 12 players on the pitch rather than 11, I think there's going to have to be compromise on one of those (unless you want to go to a back 3, but...).

No but you can attack in a 4-4-2 and defend in a 4-5-1. They did it for years so its nothing new. Its as common as formation as you'll get really. Just need a winger to tuck in when needed. Valencia can do that. Nani and Young can't though.

[The Nal]

Young can't do anything and Valencia's been terrible for about 15 months.

Not that I'm disagreeing with the principle.

Did anyone see Mike Phelan's claim that he was the man utd manager for the last 5 years?

[kaosmark2]

Sooner hes sold the better.

[eFestivals]

Yeah but if you read the actual article he didn't really mean that.

ahhh, OK - all i saw was the headline.

It's common knowledge fergie didn't take the training sessions in the last few years and delegated it to his coaches.

If that's all Phelan was referring to then he's talking bull. That's not so unusual within footie, even for younger managers - for example, I've heard it said quite a few times that Martin O'Neill doesn't take training sessions.

I got the impression from the headline that Phelan was meaning more than just that.
