Is Schneiderlin a defensive midfielder? Sweinsteiger isn't one.


He is and Swein is playing a deeper midfield role as well. MU don't need another DM.

If Schweinsteiger is playing a deeper midfield role, who's playing as center midefielder?

United has been playing a 4-2-3-1 with Carrick/Schneiderlin as the deeper mids. Swein is coming on and replacing carrick. With Mata, Depay, and Young/Januzaj/Fellani playing the 3 attacking mids.

He is and he has been very good for United so far! Only an injury would stop him from appearing in the starting XI.

Ok, i haven't been following MU for a long time but Casemiro is a great midfield commander and would probably be cheap for MU.

How good is he anyway? I'm asking because I wasn't able to see Porto's matches last season.

I'm surprised Chelsea got Pedro.. Did they need him?

Tactically he's superb; he's very good at retrieving balls and marking players; he has good short pass but average long pass; he has a trmendous long shot and his pace is always intensive from box to box.

Yes we do.Willian is not a winger,Cuadrado still struggling and Moses injured, so our right wing is shit and was shit for a while.

Meh.. Bertrand Traore could play there till Moses returns or Cuadrado stepped up.. 19 but a fantastic player...

ManU still struggling to score goals... does anyone know why Fellaini wasn't on bench? They could have used a battering ram behind Rooney, Januzaj didn't seem to do much.

Crystal Palace - Aston Villa next ---->



That damn offside call.. That should have been a goal! Fucking hell..
