Too many permutations and combinations it's impossible to say
I have a feeling we'll be seeing some more of the 3-5-2 this year, and no doubt players springing up in a variety of a positions. I also think Luis will surprise everyone by promoting or buying one or two younger players, which also makes it impossible to predict. Anyway, let's just say we are having to pick our top 4.4.2, I'd say the following are the best players, on paper, in each position: GK: DDG (or A.N.Other) Fullbacks: Shaw and Darmian Centre Backs: Smalling and Rojo (Jones or maybe even Carrick if we have 3-5-2 - Ramos/Otamendi to replace either) Central Midfield: Basti and Carrick Wide players/wingers: Di Maria and Depay Attacking Duo: Rooney and Mata (! -fully expect us to sign a tall, pacey old school number nine) My favourite player is Herrera, £#%&!ing loving him I do, but I don't see him ousting any of the above. Squad rotation and an abundance of talented subs means we should be putting up a fierce challenge on all fronts, this year. Just see us as being light in the CB and striker positions. Are 2 more signings possible? £#%&! yeah. |

It will obviously be 433
De Gea (for now) Darmian----Smalling----Jones / Rojo----Shaw Carrick / Schneiderlin Herrera---------------Schweinsteiger Mata / Di Maria----Rooney-------Depay Not sure who will partner Smalling and god knows how you can pick the 3 in midfield out of Carrick, Schweinsteiger, Schneiderlin and Herrera as except for Carrick they can all play in each position in the midfield 3 Mata and Di Maria can also play as the advanced attacking midfielders as well #options Not sure who plays on the right of the front 3 but if Di Maria stays then I'd give him a run in the side in that position as I feel we need pace either side of Rooney Even without any further signings it looks |
