The problem is, that from my impression Clev is supposed to be the main build up player in that formation and I believe that he played one, maybe two forward passes. He needs to be way more active in bringing the ball forward.

It's the only logical explanation tbh
Young and Anderson aren't doing themselves any favours sadly, got to believe this is their last season with us. Hopefully one of them can produce something in the second half, but Nani and Kagawa will be surely incoming, or maybe Hernandez.
Chuck Januzaj on, watch him win us the game and the legend of the Wet & Windy night at Stoke begins.
If they didn't bother with a second half would anyone notice or care?
Not in squad.
The ball bounced at pace up near his nuts, what on earth could he do with it? Near impossible ball to get a controlled touch with let alone a shot.
Curses to tuning in late and missing subs. Legend cancelled until the league game then.
Halftime announcer: "There is a child stuck in The Tunnel of Goats..."
You'd think that Young must know he's on his way out of the door with Januzaj, Valencia and Nani all more likely to stay. Why doesn't he go for broke when he gets a chance in a game like this? Why doesn't he at least try running at their right back instead of playing for corners, throw ins and fouls or passing it backwards to Evra? If it doesn't come off then you would have been sold anyway. Anderson is the same, a player that's very lucky to still be part of this squad. Bizarre.
Stoke presented with an award on the pitch at half-time. "Premier League's most hilarious team." Worthy winners.
I feel a bit sorry for Young and Anderson, they've been poor but those conditions have made it pretty difficult for anyone out there to have a good game.
I don't even think Anderson and Young have been much worse than the others; just reaping more criticism inevitably.
Lets look at the bright side. It can only get better, right? Right 
?
?This was the game I was expecting when I seen the lineup, and the weather was always going to play a part too. There's little creativity in that lineup. Rafael is probably our most technical player out there and he's a right back.
I'm getting the match again. Huzzah.
Some festival of shit crosses today.
Zaha's stare. Creepy.
Rafael can't cross today.
Great play up to Rafael
No you don't, stop pulling our leg!
Looks like Evra.
Why does the old first team coach person who Moyes brought from Everton not sit in the dugout?
Kagawa, Nani and Zaha need a run out here.
Who was a United fan in the Stoke team?
Everyone's moaning but I actually think we're playing reasonably well.
Whelan 
Stoke really are a shower of shite.
Nah, Danny needs the run out up front. Keep Hernandez fresh for the weekend. I think we'll need him.
Fair to say Moyes has his team wrong
Ando and Young shouldn't play unless we are really struggling
Ando and Young shouldn't play unless we are really struggling
Oh Ando
Cameron
Classic Anderson.
Ando shot!
I assume he'll go off for Hernandez

Woodwood sitting next to Gill, hopefully getting some tips...
Look at that prick.
