Bobadilla pls

 

[L1NETT]

:lol Buxton

what a halfwit

 

[slightconfuse]

Can't wait to see what Louie van Moyes does today

 

[Blablurn]

No Rumbo :/

 

[Yurt]

I'll be rooting for United

the thing I love about Sassuolo is that they never give a fuck and keep trying to score. This will ever end up 7-0 again, or they will make a comeback

Still, you'd think they'd work on improving their defense after last season. Not so much, lewl.

The pundits were in tears trying to decipher their defensive (non)shape

It's like a fucking pub side, no organization whatsoever

 

[cartoon_soldier]

How exactly we form up though...

 

[fadetoblack]

Hear ye, hear ye:

MGS 2 > MGS 1 > MGS 4 > MGS 3

 

[Wes]

Cheers for the responses, lads. Time to get started then.

I highly recommend doing a C25K plan if you're starting up running after a long time out. I found the structure very helpful in getting back in to the swing of things.

 

[Clegg]

That defensive 3 is awful.

 

[Fergie]

No Rumbo :/

Will have a mad reception when he comes on.

 

[Se7enSword]

It's 4-4-2.

 

[Lana Del Rey]

How often/regularly do you guys do your running? I need to stop being a lazy cunt.

I run everyday and when football is on I watch the TV on a treadmill

Jogging is a good start but eventually you'll get bored and not feel any touchable improvement in your stamina

 

[justjohn]

I hope we blow out qpr early so Adnan and Andreas can get 30 minutes or so.

Lol, you guys never learn do you.

 

[Tc91]

Gonna watch United for Blind I think.

<3

:loooool that red card in the Derby game.

 

[Zabojnik]

man i used to do HIIT a few years back. Loved it, might get back into when the knee is healthy enough for it.

Nobody ever fully recovers from a torn ACL, m32. My condolances.

 

[Elchele]

lol that Baba guy doesn't fuck around

 

[DBT85]

Will have a mad reception when he comes on.

I hope so, I made a shitty gif

 

[KidA Seven]

That defensive 3 is awful.

How can you tell if it's a defensive 3? I honestly don't know what the formation will be. Blackett and Rojo can both play as cbs or lbs. Blind can play as a midfielder or a lwb. It could easily be a 3 man midfield.

I don't know.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Could be 4 at the back too.

But most like continuing with the 3-5-2.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Could be 4 at the back too.

Blind as wingback then

 

[kharma45]

It's 4-4-2.

4-3-3

Defence

Herrera Blind Di Maria

Mata

RVP Fatboy

4 I think. Didn't LVG say he sees Blind as a DM?

 

[Mr Cola]

Louis van Gaal has confirmed that his side is playing 4 at the back today vs QPR

Via United Report :O

 

[DBT85]

Our reporter at the ground is hearing back 4.

 

[L1NETT]

Will have a mad reception when he comes on.

Might be able to actually hear the OT home crowd for once

--

Ibe looks to have something about him. Lad has got some afterburners for sure

 

[Scum]

Is that Evans, Rojo, Blackett as a back 3?

I think so. Rafael & Blind as WBs.

Edit - kharma's got this.

 

[Elchele]

nice shot by Kadlec

 

[DominoKid]

How exactly we form up though...

The anticipation is killing me.

OT Crowd is actually really good these days, my folks have had a season ticket for the past 5 years, since they introduced the singing section the noise has gone up considerably.

 

[FlutterPuffs]

That's a sexy lineup on paper.

 

[Salazar]

4 AT THE BACK YEEEAAAAH

4 AT THE BACK CONFIRMED

 

[Lana Del Rey]

4-3-3

Defence

Herrera Blind Di Maria

Mata

You know nothing KarmaSnow

Maybe you know more than I &#55357;&#56850;

I'm ITK for tactical nous.

 

[Willkiller]

Philosophy abandoned :lol

Falcao on the bench, LVG you prick he's in my team

 

[figadapaura]

Rafael! Praise be.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Philosophy abandoned :lol

Falcao on the bench, LVG you prick he's in my team

Eh?

He's used 4-3-3 for almost his entire career. Not that philosophy strictly refers to an exact formation anyways.

 

[Tim the Wiz]

No Valencia, Young or Fletcher in the first XI. I can live with that.

 

[Scum]

Don't know why, but I expect Rppmey to turn up today.

 

[KidA Seven]

Philosophy abandoned :lol

Falcao on the bench, LVG you prick he's in my team

Formation isn't important in his philosophy. He's said that countless times. I know because he doesn't shut the fuck up about his philosophy like Yurt says.

 

[Hixx]

:looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

Laboured is so far up van Gaal's hoop he could tell us what he had for breakfast

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Wow reporters reckon we're going for 4-4-2 diamond. Interesting.

:looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

Laboured is so far up van Gaal's hoop he could tell us what he had for breakfast

Yikes, is this because of the Destiny thing? You could just take it back to the shop Hixx.

4-3-3 is his philosophy ya bert. We only played 5 at the back out of necessity.

 

[DBT85]

Townsend and Wilkins can't make their mind up between 4-42 and 4-3-3, but think 4-3-3 is the best bet.

 

[Gurthang]

lol Napoli so shit

 

[Willkiller]

:looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

The 'philosophy' is one of the best things to come out of the Premier League in recent years. It's so David Brent.

 

[K1LLER7]

4 at the back

 

[KidA Seven]

4-3-3 is his philosophy ya bert. We only played 5 at the back out of necessity.

4-3-3 isn't his philosophy. The philosophy is apparently the possession playing out from the back style + how he conducts training + how he assesses his players and staff + some other shit.

that's his philosophy m8

[Mr Cola]

4 at the back

Im so happy ;_;

Could today really be the day we beat a team

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Philosophy abandoned :lol

Falcao on the bench, LVG you prick he's in my team

Except he's said countless times when he's talking about his philosophy the formation is a flexible component.

I'll bet a lot of English pundits will be shocked to find out Blind isn't playing at left-back.

Sounds like you're way up LvG's arse m8. Or as other people might put it, 'not ignorant'.

 

[K1LLER7]

Di Maria in midfield or the wing?
