Ok. For the record, we still think Louis is a legend. He’s brought belief and class back to Manchester United and we see success for the team over the next 2 or 3 years.
But we feel that he has been making some small errors of late.
Angel di Maria
Louis has been starting him up top for the last two games and it hasn’t worked. For all his talents Di Maria is no good with his back to goal. He is player who needs to come from deep, run at defenders, create for others and generally cause havoc. That is HIS game. He can’t do that sort of damage when he is the furthest player forward, trying to receive and hold up the ball.
Manchester United’s best players for that are RvP and Rooney. A simple positional swap between Roo and Angel would immediately improve the side. And when Manchester United went to 4 at the back and pulled Di Maria deeper against QPR it paid instant dividends.
Louis has to realise this if the team is to move forward. It’s time for 4 at the back and Rooney in the hole.
So here is our best side for the game against Cambridge in the Cup next Friday (Kick Off 19:55) in a match that Manchester United can start to show the sort of form that we expected from them by this stage of the season.
Manchester United fans: thoughts please
