Not every team has Can m78. United simply have players better suited to a back 4, and as we all know, back 3 means more ball time for Jones/Smalling/Evans.

Blind has been good against the poorer sides. About his level for now.
West Ham pressed in midfield and he got by passed a lot.
But have to look beyond that too, the way we set up in midfield makes it a tough task for everyone.

God it feels weird Arsenal fans etc wanting us to drop points.

Even if we thought with our dicks we would know it.
The experiment has failed. It worked now and then when he played 1 game in 10. With him starting every game in midfield it is a failure.
Again.
-------- Rooney ------- Falcao -------
------------------- Mata ---------------
----- Di Maria ----------- Herrera -----
------------------- Blind ------------------
Shaw ---- Rojo -- Jones ---- Rafael
----------------- De Gea -----------------
Wilson for Rooney or Falcao.
You can taste the desperation from Arse-GAF. They legit worried.

If that were the case then he would have scored! Falcao should go back to Atlético and be resurrected.

Apart from the City/Chelsea games the play in which gave me a lot of hope.
Who has looked good against the good sides - Saints, Arsenal, West Ham, Spurs, Liverpool?
Carrick comes to mind.
Herrera I think in the small time he got to play.

Didn't have the best of games but he's been one of our better players this season imo.

Fellaini's played well against pretty much everyone. He's probably our most consistent outfield player.
theres been some great trolling from managers this season
Do your 700 and odd Pokemon know this?
You should be worried about Spurs for sure. But then again your confidence has no bearing on actual results so...
Desperation no but I'll admit they are starting to worry me.

Good for them. Stuttgart needs to find one of those new amazing coaches

I was hoping the African Cup of Nations final would be the only shite football I saw today.
This has been going on for too long and I'm starting to think our coaches dont get the DVDs for our matches. We are not in the position to be experimenting, the injuries excuse can no longer be used.
The decent thing for Rooney to do now is fake an injury

Blind keeps his side in the title race!
With the way these teams are playing I'd say it's too tight to call and all teams should be worried bar Chelsea and perhaps City.

Idk, I just can't really agree that we were that bad today.
Think people are underestimating this West Ham side at home quite a bit, especially as they'd dumped Carroll for Sakho and were playing the formation that has done teams like Man City this season.
A point isn't that horrific, especially given how much nearly everyone below us has floundered this weekend (and will likely continue to flounder).
The performance was not great although it was generally better in the second half.
My main areas of concern are:
- Rooney as a CM. He's just awful. He's invisible except for when he's mis-passing it to the opposition in his own half. He has to play up front.
- The form of Falcao and RVP. They both missed chances that they would have previously buried in their sleep. There's a serious case to be made to bin them both in the summer. Falcao's first touch is pretty gash and doesn't seem to be improving.
- Blind clearly is not up for physical battles. That needs to change or he'll find himself being a squad player after next summer.

Great result, I have Meier, Klavan and Trapp in my Kicker team
remember when Meier had a decent hair cut
With City it depends on their next few games. I am not really worried about any team tbh, the fact we are 3rd is crazy.

Well, when you are basically saying: Rooney sucked, RVP & Falcon sucked, Blind sucked, maybe not as much, but sucked nonetheless. And we add Di Maria, whom you are forgetting, also sucked, then, yea, I think I can safely say United were THAT bad. The semi dangerous spells don't make up for it. WHU have been good this season, but give them a game at least. 80 out of 90 minutes that didn't happen.
I don't think Rooney sucked entirely due to his position. I mean, it contributes, but fuck, you'd expect him to at least get a bit better after half a season playing there.
Exactly how I feel regarding de Boer. The one thing that is bothering me is that he says he's all for giving players confidence and than leaves out the ones that need it the most. Boilesen has been awful so many matches, yet the front three that show some promise get switched out every other game. It's just stupid that the one routine guy we've gotten this summer is Zimling.

Moyes is a real human bean
Disgusting that he was driven out of the country by ingrates

Sorry got confused with City.
It'll do him a world of good never to come back to face the tabloids in this country.
