And the reason I mention van Gaal being questioned at every turn is because he's the only manager who is always indirectly or directly questioned after a poor passage of play. So we play great at Everton and everyone's happy, but it takes a poor half in the very next game for the pundits to critical of the manager's approach again. It's never just a bad performance; it's always linked to the style. For what it's worth, while the football is still a way off the ideal I want to see, I quite enjoyed the Sunderland, Everton, Wolsfburg and City games. All in the last month or so. |

Interesting response on the game the other night:

That being said the United side of things wasn't good enough, he should be demanding improvements from those who under achieved the other night yet seems happy with the performance. |

It reeks of fear, and doesn't accomplish the safety objective anyway because knocking the ball around in midfield only increases the risk of an interception leading to a counter in a good position. It's actually much safer to push high up the field because, not only might you create a chance for yourself, but even if you lose the ball the other team then have to build from a much lower position. Regardless, this shouldn't degenerate into a debate about what does or doesn't constitute a 'chance'. It just confuses the issue. We may not be able to define it, but we all know what one £#%&!ing looks like when we see it. If we see it. |

The front four had an average age of 20. I'm sure he'll look to continue developing them rather than slaughtering them. Quote:
As for how often I get frustrated by that, sometimes when we win the ball back I don't think it goes forward quickly enough. But generally I'm quite happy for it to stay away from Rooney if possible. A sideways pass to Martial is more positive than a forward pass to Rooney these days. |
