Man Utd Build Up

[Exiled_red]

If they are going with 3 in midfield we can't go 4-4-2 or we'll be overrun in midfield

If ever there was a time to stuff them today is the day, weird line up form fergie. They have some bench though

[Mostar]

Strange utd formation that. Very defensive.

Totally..

Not only that Fergie is not starting Rooney but also no Nani

[McDermotX]

Some decent players to come off the bench for them all the same

[Fredo]

Or them packing the midfield and pressurising Adam who's not been too good lately. Not really in United's style to worry about the opposition.

[SB]

Rooney mustn't be right in the head for fergie to not play him In this

[RoadEnd]

A real test for us to overcome a defensive line up. It could be a goalfest or a stalemate with them getting lucky on the counter.

4-4-2

Genuine frown? My feeling is that the way Kuyt plays up front it more or less becomes a 4 line formation anyway.

[Slinky Skills]

Pretty much got that line up spot on from a few weeks back.

Hear Andy Burton then in the pub?

I see they've got a picture of Gary Neville up in this pub, but not because it's Halloween it's always been up!

You mean, 4-4-2 when defending and 4-2-1-3 (or 4-2-4) when attacking? I think that's roughly what our formation evolves during a match since Kenny took charge.

What's odd?

Don't like the decision to drop Carroll at all. You don't drop strikers when they're starting to score goals. Rafa used to wrongly do it with Crouch all the time & now Kenny's doing it with Carroll.

Their bench is very strong. If they manage to keep it 0-0 until the 60th min or so, I expect all three the big names on.

Pretty much - although I'm not sure Kenny's attacking formations are always intended to be as rigid as that.
