van der vaart. aiyoh why RM wanted to sell him to us at 16m but only 8m to spurs?

i liked the guy very much since his ajax day.. but i wonder will he performs as well as he is now with spurs if he was in MU? u know, at spurs, he is the star, all the moves and strategy are based around him..

i doubt he will enjoy the privillege in MU.

we are the team who depends heavily on good wingers. when our wingers had a great game, other players especially in the middle of the field would also enjoy the same good game.

last time we had Beckham and Ronaldo. during that period, most of our attacks and goals started from these 2 guys. Keane, Scholes, Carrick can bosses the middle of the field because opponents were focusing on our wingers a lot. Beckham with his long ball and crosses into the box, and Ronaldo with his maze run and thunderous shot could produce big things from nothing.

now as Valencia is injured, it's up to Nani to perform well. because most of our goals will come from wing play..

QUOTE(Wan @ Oct 4 2010, 07:28 PM)

Added on October 4, 2010, 8:25 pmAnd he plays out wide(not like a winger, more like a roaming AM who starts out wide) for Spurs. And we have the likes of Nani, Valencia, Park, Giggs, Cleverley, Obertan out wide. We will always play with two strikers. So the position left to play is in the middle. Nobody will use him in the middle when they play 442(which we do play a lot of the time). And thus that's one of the reason why we never bought any of his kind/type(Sneidjer is another one) unless they're comfortable playing there(middle of 442). Ando, forward/attacking midfielder before he joins us and now he plays more like a deep lying midfielder, battling for the ball and spraying passes from deep ala Carrick/Scholes/Fletcher.

He could really be useful for us in a 433/4231 setup though since we don't really have an option that could wow us from there right now. But then would he really be happy not being the absolute first choice since we play more than half our games with 442.

yes this is what i meant.

while it's true there's centre of midfielder that moves the ball, the architect of attack for MU is always the winger. last time it's either cross from Beckham, or dribbles into penalty box by Giggs and Ronaldo.. that's why some good attacking midfielder not really excel in MU if they cant change their gameplay. remember Veron?

when Rooney hit his top form last season, most of the goals were from header, which came mostly from crosses by Valencia..
