Fuuuu.. Masuk redcafe..especially twitter  discuss... Very serious lio...

CONFIRMED: Bebe has joined Benfica in a deal worth up to €3million. mufc has the right to 50% of any sell-on fee.

NNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Same as last year's league? Then no need to rejoin again

Btw..

The first goal might be lucky,  but you make your own luck. It's not the first time Rooney hit one of those amazing shots(Arsenal in his Everton days). As for scoring goals in quick successions,  just look back at the LA Galaxy game. The fluidity is back in our play that's been missing for a year or two now and we're reaping the rewards from that. Stick to the same side that played in the first half,  we would likely ripped them to shreds. Look at the quality of attacking players we have and tell me with a straight face that we're not capable of that sort of stuff.

I wouldn't judge our backline that featured the youngsters. Blackett was awful playing them onside time and time again. Reece James have looked quite good as LWB. Could save us some cash buying back to Sjaw if he keep this up. But we really need to add another CB at least if we plan to play with. 3 CBs. Keane would be a useful back there.

Need another CM. After Herrera and Carrick,  big gulf to the next one. Cleverley have turn into a pondan. Disappointing seeing him play this way compared to the busy fearless attacking intent he showed in his first season or two for  us. Since then,  a lot of our players follow similar path. Nani,  Valencia,  Ando.. Where did those awesome performances go?

nxt game when?

Trust Tony V there, or thrust Vermijl there?

LOL

OMG!!!!!!!!!!! I also choosed express but my 1 still appear "Picking" in my ordering profile lah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGHHHH

My height 168cm and 60kg , if u around same measurement thn buy Boy XL , nicely fit . Men S too big for me .

Fingers crossed. Based on the statements from LVG, my guess is we will only be looking to sign 1 CB for experience and 1 CM/DM.

He said good things about Keane and Blackett, and has played James a fair bit on tour.. suspect a couple of them will be promoted soon to act as backups for the starters.

If Young can continue to do well in the wingback role then Valencia, Young, Shaw, and Rafael are the 4 wingbacks for the coming season.

3 CB formation means we want at least 6 CBs for it... and we have 5 guys already (albeit all except Evans are young-ish). Just add some experience.

you're quite right.
i was trying to fit in the players we have (even though square pegs in round holes) into the 3-4-3 system.
not everyone fits perfectly into the system based on their natural strengths so i guess they need to find new roles or try to fit in.

LWB : Shaw, James, Januzaj, Nani
RWB : Rafa, TonyV, Young, Zaha

on RWB it seems TonyV and Young are eager to please LVG by playing in that position.
i see LWB is mainly James/Shaw, i remember seeing nani came on but unsure where he played, did janu play any matches so far? 

Janu, Nani, Zaha are more RW/LW/AM 

that Nani fella i dunno what he doing. he shouldve grabbed his chance with both hands. He was given more like a ROnaldo at Real's role. shouldve use his dribble and speed to get at goal. when plating as winger, always shoot dun wan pass, now play up front wanna pass dun wan shoot. betul2 mau kena shoot this fella  but it was really embarrasing for him to come off after coming on for 2nd half... poor fella, hope his agent already find suitors for him. aged 27, he's supposed to be peaking now 

----- Fletcher ---Herrera---

-----------Mata-------------
IMO, the above is the current top 3 players for the positions. backup for Fletch and Ander would be cleverly and carrick. backup for Mata is Kagawa/Rooney.

[/U]Attack:
from what we've seen of Herrera, he's gonna be the difference this season. box to box, meaning, when attacking =

--------------------Fletch----------------
-Valencia--------Herrera-----------Shaw
---Mata---------RVP---------Rooney----

6 players attacking, so basically only 1 sitting midfield(Fletch) plus 3 CBs to standby for oppo's counter attack.

when defending:

Valencia-Smalling-Jones-Evans-Shaw
------ FLetch--Herrera------------------

7 players defending plus currently defence playing very high line (which has its disadvantages). Meaning opposition would be forced to play the ball along their defence line till they find a way thru.
Teams like Barca would love to play against us every week coz they would slice thru us with their tiki-taka passing

bootom line, LVG mentioned he had to use 3-5-2 so that all the players can play and he could evaluate them. so, there are chances we would change tactic come the beginning of the season. I'm sure Adnan, Zaha and the wingers are heaving a headache right now, gotta choose between a fwd role or a wingback role 

PS: just my opinion, dun shoot
