I'm still in shock mode after the Falcao deal. Out of no where but it's not like the strikers were scoring in bunches. 1 goal between Rooney and Van Pesie in 3 matches. Not good enough for a top 4 finish.

Falcao didn't address our defense issues but at least we have the most lethal front in the Premier League. Take that Mourinho!

The world's best club? I thought he signed for Man U, not Livepool?

Cannot wait for the QPR game, old man Rio is gonna have a headache trying to catch up with Falcao and Di Maria.

Falcao to Man U huh? Sucks, but good luck to him and the club. Should be interesting to see how LVG Will handle the line up.

What if old man Rio scores the game winning header?

The last time he scored a game winning header he still had dreadlocks. He's way past his prime to be doing that.

The 6 new players could all be starting this weekend. Fielding a completely new team, wow.

Great game today. Can't remember the last time we've seen so much cohesion in the middle and across the flanks. Di Maria was unreal. Blind is the stud connection we needed from back to middle. Herrera, Rafeal, and Rooney we're on point. Falcao's short playing time was nice. Van Persie should have taken a shot in the last opportunity he had but he'll get in the scoring sheets soon. Can't wait for next game.

Looks like it'll be the same lineup as last time for this game, with a bit more emphasis on a 4-1-2-1-2 formation.

Matty · Post #253 » by **Matty** » Sat Sep 27, 2014 5:53 am

Looks like a 4-3-1-2 lineup with Fletcher or hopefully Blind slated in the back with Rojo. Shaw also gets his first start and I'm eager to see what he brings to the table. Certainly a breath of fresh air in our defense which is really needed.

Rooney is such a Muppet. He's gotten lucky a few times over the last couple years but today was sheer idiocy.

Rooney has the heart of Roy Keane but the mind of Joey Barton, nothing we can do about it. The one positive we can take from the long suspension is that we don't have to field 3 strikers anymore and Falcao will have time to jell with RVP.

Herrera was a workhorse today, wasn't impressed with Blind too much though :/

Paddy McNair out three weeks

United lose a player or two every game

4 road games and no victories to show for it (5 including League cup) and no wins to show for it, we're not finishing in the top 4 without a road win.

Just found this forum, good to see.

In tough Sunday against Chelsea but I thin Man U can surprise them if they're taken lightly.

Who'd you rather start - RVP or Falcao? As much as I love RVP, Falcao has been the more dangerous player this year and I think he deserves the start.
