It's obvious that a 3-man defence type of system will never work for United, no matter how many more months we'll give him. They just don't have the right CBs for it, even worse, their CBs are absolutely diabolical, while they'll never have the type of cover that proper WBs provide for that system

I'll seriously be shocked if he doesn't change this system and they manage to succeed this season

Playing a 3-5-2 when you have no wing-back available is madness.

I think it's even worse when you have Jones and Evans as 2 of those CBs

Jones isn't that bad, but he shouldn't be your #1 defender. Evand and Smalling are terrible centre backs though.

So they've got Rojo paying a fortune precisely because they need someone to play in the back three. Luke Shaw will become a wingback I imagine. And they shall stick to Valencia and Young as right full backs.

Their problem imo, is that before they added Di Maria, this was the crappiest midfield amongst the top 10 clubs, and including Newcastle (sounds like a familiar problem?) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Cleverley in their midfield is worse than Muntari in ours. Fletcher is a worker with little imagination. And Carrick is about Montolivo level. How is a one-time competitor for best club in the world supposed to work with that.

Holding up well so far. 2 games played, 0 goals conceded. Good at the back good supporting the attack. Hope he keeps it up.

^^ Right. I understand your opinion.

Now Ry4n, if you want to debate, you can stick in and weigh in on the points kurt has presented with your own. But if you wish to go ad hominem on kurt's abilities of perception, I'm afraid that banter will have to go PM.

Thanks guys. Let's get a beer when I'm in town. kurt will arrange the girls. And since he's in Birmingham, there will be plenty of Indian girls with sexy Brit accents for me to go on the rampage.

P.S: Not that I don't like white girls/black girls/Hispanic girls/middle-eastern girls, just that I'm sure kurt's carved up his territory and .....

its not really a debate i asked him a question he answered , thats all there is to it.

Do i agree with him no.

Liverpool is mostly a large portion of their fans being incredibly disrespectful. They defend Suarez throughout his racism, diving and biting. I browse opposition forums a lot and RAWK, their main one, is a vile place. Even some Liverpool fans who hold a minority opinion have insults hurled at them, it's quite ridiculous.

Redknapp is his lack of loyalty. He's spent silly money (not all his fault) at clubs to serve his own needs. It's easy to look a bit better when you spend a tonne, but when the money goes, he leaves the club. If you get sacked it's one thing, but to jump ship when a club is in trouble and you've helped put them there is just poor form. As for my perceived lack of class by him, it's like when he went to QPR he called out the whole squad saying they're overpaid, not good enough, etc. So he then goes and spends £10m and £100k a week on a centreback who was a pretty medicore EPL defender. The main thing though is his constant talking about other teams players. For starters by rule it's illegal, it's tapping up. He constantly does it and for Odemwingie to turn up at QPR, "uninvited" and say he knew nothing about it is quite ridiculous. The media love-in isn't his fault, it's just hilarious how people think he's good enough for England or a good manager. This is the same manager who needed the playoffs to get a team with one of the highest budgets in World football to get out of the Championship. Some people like him? That's fine, I personally can't stand the bloke or his sidekick Joe Jordan.

Thanks for answering the Q!

on Liverpool i think there is more to it tbh that your not telling us it's ok though. You might have walked into a few liverpool yobs somewhere down the line i don't know.

All i can say is i got to a liverpool supporters pub with my brother when the big games are on and i usually go in my Milan top i can't say anyone has come up to me drunk or not and said get out no they were very welcoming. Alot of the lads come from up north and are more then respectful but ofc theres banter i take it and give it like anyone else.

Suarez is probably one of the best players they have had in a while. But its a shame he showed what is not uncommon in Uruguay racisim...no child should ever see it and anyone liverpool fan or not should defend him. Its inexcusable period.

I don't go on liverpool forums why would i...if they want to defend him let the idiots do it they just look out of place and not in the right era and maybe the mods ban them or something...

On harry i guess we will have to agree to disagree imo i think he should have taken england to the wc and not hodgson.

So to clarify i agree on Suarez totally.

Villa have bid £8m for Cleverley!? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Would be one of the worst signings of all-time.

I'm practically in tears, he's absolutely horrendous. You could grab a random 20 something off the street and as long as they were fairly in shape they would perform as well as if not better than him. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I don't know what's worse, us wanting to buy him or United fans being genuinely disappointed at losing him!? Redcafe seems to believe he's a future England star and people that don't rate him "don't really see what he brings to a team".

Yes of course. Didn't he once so eruditely explain how English fans don't 'get' his Spanish style of play?!! Shame on you, for not recognizing a true artist!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Yeah he said that. Said that if all he did was pass the ball sideways and keep possession then he's doing his job. We already have a CM that's good at playing the simple passes, so why would we spend £8m on another!?

Apparently Hull and Everton are interested. I hope they save us and we spend £8m on something we actually need, like a winger.

Haha, that's trash to be honest. People loved Makelele to bits over here because of what he did for Chelsea and he was hardly an illustrious flashy player. Makelele didn't just pass 3 yards sidewards because he was either scared or didn't have the ability to do anything else without messing it up!

Wilshere a few years back was the same, granted he's had critics of late due to his dip in form but he's never going to be your flashy Messi/Ronaldo type either.
