Manchester United vs. Southampton

Not sure how we will line up and whether Welbeck and Kagawa will hug the lines:


De Gea

Jones Smalling Vidic Evra

Welbeck Carrick Anderson Kagawa

Rooney RVP​


Or whether average position wise we will play something more like this with Kagawa using the right channel Welbeck coming in from the left and Rooney deeper.:


De Gea

Jones Smalling Vidic Evra

Carrick - Anderson

Kagawa--- Rooney ----Welbeck

----- ---
RVP -----
 
It could be either, most of the Twitter teams had Jones at RB but when I put it on here from memory, Smalling's name came first. Then again, most of the Twitter teams have 4-4-2 too which apparently isn't gonna happen... in both cases - wait and see :p
 
The pace and potential dynamics of that team going forward is frighting.

Chicha not being in the bench is interesting, hopefully is not an injury. Rafael most likely being rested.

We're going to attack tonight, aren't we?
 
I really hope they put in a performance tonight, would like to see more of this against the bigger teams.

Lets face it, we haven't had a single winger playing decently recently and it would be nice to have this other option, Fergie has flirted with this before but with 4 top strikers in our ranks I think we need to be playing 3 strikers more often as it gives us a whole new dynamic, especially when considering how versatile these players are.

Lets face it, we all know 442 is a losing formation against Barcelona and there's a good chance it's a losing formation against Madrid, a formation like this is the way forward IMO.

Remember the Newcastle game, we were dominating them like no tomorrow and it was only when we went 2 goals up that we started to sit back and let them attack us. Today I want to see us control the game in the same way Barcelona do and play the possession game whilst going on the attack.
 
Im pretty happy with that line up it would be hard to ask Nani to play again tonight and on Saturday so I guess he starts at weekend. Hernandez not is the squad is worrying I hope he's not out for long.
 
I expect Cleverley to replace Anderson and Nani to replace Welbeck after 60-70 mins.

Hernandez could be sick or something happens to most of us during Winter.
 
Welbeck is going to score tonight, as will Kagawa.

I would rather see Welbeck stay on the pitch, he needs the minutes more than RVP and Rooney right now, depending if we're winning or not of course.
 
Rafael clearly on the bench to counter the long diagonal to Lambert.
 
I think it's our classic 4231, Welbeck on right wing, and Kagawa left.

If Jones starts on RB, that would be his third game in a row in different position, vs Spurs in midfield, vs Fulham playing as CB, and tonight as fullback.
 
can someone pm me to a link for a stream - I'm on the live soccer website but it looks like it just has listings rather than streams
