Are you sure you're not talking about United?

Nop... but that applies more to Man U... Van Gaal says "We don't need a new striker."

Entire world in response "Yes, you do."

Seriously, they have 1.... well 1 and Hernandez who I presume insulted Van Gaal somehow.

I just don't understand why Van Gaal doesn't bench Rooney for a game or two and give Chicharito a chance. The Mexican did pretty well with Real Madrid after all.

He's done pretty well at Man U before Ferguson left, now what? Van Gaal doesn't have room for a fast paced goalscorer? Yet they are rumoured to have bid on Mane... a fast paced goalscorer.

I don't get Man U since Ferguson left.



Hmm, pie.

Having a striker play as a striker? That's nonsense. Just look at the rest of the players, half of them don't play in their natural postion. Don't worry, I'm sure Van Gaal has a secret plan. Maybe as a goalkeeper if they sell De Gea...



Graziono Pelle would be the ideal striker for Van Gaals ManU.. Recieve the ball,hold the ball, play it to incoming player from behind like Rooney, Mata and Memphis..

I feel like LvG should try to play Rooney as a CAM and Chicharito as a striker for a change. It's also obvious that Rooney is more suited for the CAM position judging by this.  In the match against Newcastle we had 3 CAMs ( Rooney, Mata and Januzaj) and yet no striker ( the most advanced player was the left winger Memphis).

You don't need that image, everyone knows that is his position now, well everyone but Van Gaal. Look at the season they had with Rooney just behind Van Persie, not only did it come with some great goals but between them Rooney and Van Persie scored 45 or so.  They won the season comfortably.

Don't give Van Gaal ideas. We have enough issues with these socalled 'big clubs' taking our players already.

That's not United's only problem sadly. There's also the whole Blind situation, using Mata as a winger when he's a CAM and playing with 2 holding midfielders. Look man, I like Schneiderlin and Scheweinsteiger as much as the next guy but playing with both of them is not the best idea. I see how Schweini always tries to make some smart passes and create chances, but he's simply no Herrera in regard.

Hmm... as long as Pelle stays this first half is fine. Now Jay Rod is back, all is good anyway. Those 'big clubs' need to get better scouts if all they can do is poach from clubs in their own league....

... just saying.



Hmm, pie.

Pedro surprised me. We'll see how he does on the long run.

Gareth Bale got to play where he wanted , and he was still shite

Go Liver!
