First minute, a defender gets injured, what the feck do we do??
MUTV have this formation as a 4231 btw. I would have rather seen Kagawa in there for either of Valencia or Young.
One would think we have 100 wingers, who else but Valencia and Young?! Januzaj is rested for obvious reasons.
Use Jones I suppose. That's the handy thing about being able to put him in midfield, at least it allows the need for an extra defender on the bench.
Januzaj and Fletcher both played 120 minutes against Sunderland and both looked noticeably tired as the game entered extra time. No surprise to see them both not starting.
You drop Phil Jones in there.
Januzaj getting a rest was inevitable. Would've preferred Kagawa over the other two.
Please don't watch the game
Giggsy makes his 800th start tonight.
Focus on what's in front Juan. Don't look at what's behind.
Mata will set the beast within Valencia free 
Imagine the old Valencia again

Mata
That's basically the one team we could've played that takes absolutely no account of the fact we've just signed Juan Mata. We've just put him in the same old wing centric team in place of Rooney. It's effectively improved nothing. It's maddening! AARGGHHH!
They're on the bench, so I hope not!
A week ago. Valencia has barely performed in 20 months. It's a joke how he's played more than anybody else (bar de Gea) this season.
Not sure about Giggs and Jones in midfield together. Will have to see how it goes though.
You give Moyes a £200 voucher for the Savoy and he buys himself a bread roll and a glass of mineral water.
Because 2-1-1-2 is a risky formation.
It really depresses me that we have Young and Fellaini at the club.
Christ almighty.
As long as Jones doesn't get injured he can drop back.
Way to piss on the parade. Hopefully the mata signing will create enough of a buzz for Young, Valencia, Giggs and Jones (just typing that out is depressing) to perform.
feck me.
He's gone and signed Mata, he's got Rooney/van Persie back (I know there's a possibility that Rooney's not 100 percent fit), we've got a good break since our last match, he's got Januzaj there - and he goes and plays Young and Valencia? Seriously? Are you fecking kidding me?
And don't get me started on that fecking midfield.
He's never going to do anything other than play a rigid midfield four with two wide wingers that are completely ineffective, is he?
We might, just might, get away with this against Cardiff due to individual brilliance, but feck me, he's disappointed me. I'm starting to believe he simply are completely unable to play something that gets the most out of our attacking potential.

What are we playing 4-4-1-1 or 4-2-3-1? I personally think Valencia and Young are two good players to start off with. Both are willing runners and will exploit the space behind the fullbacks and Mata will have a field day threading balls to them. I hope in the 2nd half when we are 7-0 up, Moyes will sub Valencia, Young and Giggs for Rooney, Januzaj and Cleverley ushering in a new era of dominance. The year of the midgets.
Takes time, Fletcher, Januzaj and Rooney would change the look of this team greatly.
He was fine earlier in the season. He has gone through a shit patch like most of the squad.
Young and Valencia.
Mata ---- Welbeck----Kagawa
-----------RVP--------------
There.
Pretty much this.
"I'm not having players not pulling their weight in this team, I'm not afraid to drop them.... Valencia, Young - you start."
Fellaini has only played 10 games and he was injured for most of that. He'll get better. Young is a wage thief though.
He needs to buy a proper back up RB, I think his versatility is the only reason he is still here.
Anyone else think it's telling that Giggs is starting ahead of Cleverley even though Cleverley's had a few games off.
I thought nothing could depress me with Mata making his debut, but that tumescent midfield has. fecking hell Moyes.
Mata is going to be so bemused when he gives Valencia the ball for the first time and realises the only way to get it back is to slot into the right back position.
Cunto's line-up
This is the start of Moyes brave new 'exciting football' world. I can't wait.
This.
