The Anderson thing is also a main question though...

NO!

The Anderson thing is also a main question though...
SAF not being very media savvy on this decision, if he wanted to give Lindegaard a game he could have waited until the next game.
Probably Fergie's attempt to keep his promise by keep on playing him
Welbeck was more of a threat than Nani in that game.
And as has been pointed out, you don't know what's happening in training. Maybe Welbeck has been far more impressive.
It's hardly incredulous.
No - but on the back of that howler against Fulham....well! And Stoke are small compared to Southampton. Their front 3 (I guess)
Lampbert is 6 ft 2
Rodriguez is 6 ft 2
Guly is 6 ft 3
In addition their central defenders are 6 ft 4 and 6 ft 2
It's not really because he belongs there though. It's case of Van Persie is 1st choice striker, Kagawa is the number 10, so he either plays on the left or not at all. I'd wager he's starting on the left, and will continue to, whilst Nani has an unsigned contract and Rooney is injured.
Tayolor's a cnut.
3 players over 6 foot, hardly a team of giants
If the own goal is the reason, Vidic should be dropped as well
What you should anticipate as an issue is despite dominating possession in both those games, we have conceded more shots on target than our opponents have, despite them enjoying far less of the ball. Carrick wil do a defensive job, but i don't really see a lot of defensive organisation or communication for when the opponents have it.
I have no doubt Kagawa, TC and Carrick will have plenty of possession, but will they be good enough defensively to stop Saints creating chances when they have the ball?
We will see.
Either way, the team we put out should be good enough.
If it is rotation with the goalie I don't see a big problem, only issue is you get speculation like that from the guardian that just pressure on de gea, though doubt he reads the papers.
Only Lambert of those forwards playin
Fergie might have if we had any defenders fit. Didn't he speak some weeks back that he might have over rotated last year?
Another weird first 11 from SAF.I really hope the team does the business
Why on earth would you apply the same standards to a proven world class player as you would to a rather dodgy goalkeeper?
Welbeck has been playing on the left recently and I dont expect any different tofay. Kagawa has to play through the middle. not sure why people are complaining, nani is out of form and de gea is being protected in a tough away game.
And where is Anderson? Not even on the bench. Hope he's not injured
What sort of a message does it send to him? To the opponents next time he starts?
Everton, Fellaini is taller than all of them and he was brilliant.
Who bloody cares how tall a few players are. We have our first choice centre back pairing in the side today, and we are rotating keepers. Just alot of shite if you ask me.
Yeah that's where carrick in midfield and a proper defence can help. Like I said no reason we should need such a drastic change to go with 3 centre mids and an attacking mid. Plus why waste kagawa in a wide role for ando? Against a top top team maybe but there's respecting your opponent and then being too cautious.
RVP up top with Kagawa in the hole, Wellbeck on the left
I'd rather see Nani than Welbeck, however I do think that Welbeck has the tools to become a dangerous LWF if we are to switch to a 4231 more regularly. It could work well with Evra giving width and Kagawa playing deeper than Rooney would do so behind RVP.
What odds on a Welbeck header from a Valencia cross?
What odds on a Welbeck header from a Valencia cross?
And he's actually very well suited to play there; it's the team that shouldn't insist on the "get the ball wide, swing a cross in" tactic all the time. A wide player doesn't have to be a touchline-hugging winger.
Why De Gea is not starting. fecking hell, I thought that we will not repeat last season mistakes.
Christ, might as well shut down the forum then, seeing as nobody knows what's happening behind doors regarding anything, what's the point?
Nani is our best/second best winger, and we're using a striker there instead, unless he's injured or carrying something, it's a senseless decision, I've rarely, if ever seen Welbeck have a good game on the wings, maybe that will change today.
Southampton looking to line up with a pretty attacking formation, that is good, they will get their chances but then so should we.
When did Lindegaard cost us points?
Anyone know the song that they just played on Sky?
Rickie Lambert.. Don't celebrate.
Lindegaard played quite well for us last season when he was called upon, so it seems we are trying to repeat some things that went well for us last season by giving him some games.
Im quite happy with that team. Stop finding reason to complain about everything you cnuts.
Why is everyone having a break down over DDG not starting?
You misunderstood me. The rotation of goalkeepers in the league wasn't a good thing last year and didn't helped De Gea's confidence. And then he has dropped again. I don't know if that is because of his mistake last game but De Gea should start every game in the league.
Not everyone, just the fanboys. De Gea > United for them.
Bollocks.
Also Nani not starting and Ando not even in bench (after his good game when he played well) is ridiculous.
Nah, just anyone who thinks rotating goalkeepers is a plain daft idea.
