CFR Cluj v Manchester United

Great play.
 
United have this annoying habit the last few years of just trying to do enough to win. Especially in Europe. Hence when we go a goal up we start playing shit.

It's why we fecked up last year.
 
We're still a bit static upfront in the centre, but at least we've a shite load of possession.
 
Clive is really getting on my tits, just shut the feck up
 
60 minutes. Anderson is now unable to run anymore.
 
Mid table Romanian Club

If they were a midtable team then they wouldn't be here.

They're the champions, and win it about 60 percent of the time.
 
Now, obviously, it's a side in Vampire country that've been named by drawing random letters out of a hat, but still, with a bit of tweaking, this could be the germ of something much better here.

Add Kagawa into the mix, and a touch of width to give an option on one side (either one, if it's Nani, the one he can play on if it's Tony) and this could be the start of something.

Possibly.

So, Giggs & Scholes for Sunday it is then.
 
This game has been an utter waste of time and my sleep.

If not for our shit defending, would have already gone to bed.

Make some subs Fergie!! Unleash the Buttman!
 
Evra must have got a bollocking at half time, because he's been pretty decent this second half.
 
Not really, a diamond is never called a 4-3-3 which is just a different formation. If you translate it in into numbers it would be a 4-1-2-1-2 I think, Fletcher sitting, Cleverely and Anderson in the middle, Rooney off the strikers, RVP and Hernandez up front.

:lol:

Well no, they've won it 3 times.

Ever.

Your team is winning 1-2, not really what I consider to be a waste.

What were you expecting, we have had umpteen similar away CL games over the years

Mid table this season. They are over a quarter of the way through and in mid table.
 

Hmm, okay.

That's what it's called, google 4-1-2-1-2 formation. It's blatantly not called a 4-3-3 is it.

From wiki
'The 4–4–2 diamond (also described as 4–1–2–1–2) staggers the midfield. The width in the team has to come from the full-backs pushing forward. The defensive midfielder is sometimes used as a deep lying playmaker. Its most famous example was Carlo Ancelotti's Milan, which won the 2003 UEFA Champions League Final and made Milan runners-up in 2005. Milan was obliged to adopt this formation so as to field talented central midfielder Andrea Pirlo, in a period when the position of offensive midfielder was occupied by Rui Costa and later Kaká.'
