thirteen.


De Gea
Jones-----Rojo
Rafael -------Blind-------Shaw
Mata - Herrera - di Maria
Rooney - Falcao

Under the assumption that RvP needs an op, if not and he's fine then


De Gea
Jones-----Rojo
Rafael -------Blind-------Shaw
Herrera - di Maria
Rooney - RvP - Falcao

I just can't see Mata getting regular games. Or maybe he'll link it all together who do you drop for him though? Obviously not wazza, or falcao, or ADM, or Herrera, or Blind.... they're all too important.


What a side that is though potentially

he must be thinking of rotation and impact, i doubt we'll start each game with the same team. you could easily take carrick off for mata and drop blind back. etc

can't see it with so little games. He'll pick his best side from the QPR games and injuries and suspensions aside he'll stick with it imo.

With the potential starting XI we now have, we could quite easily bring players into the fold at 2 or 3 up

Better than finding out how his kids did in their SATS and the last time the dog went to the grooming parlour.

I'm pretty disappointed by the lack of poems this transfer window tbh. Shaw, Falcao, Rojo, di Maria and Blind and not one £#%&!ing poem. Shambles.

Surely Carrick is a big risk at centre half, especially considering the amount of space between the 3 centre halves. Nice notion because he is good on the ball and will be able to distribute, but not sure it is a realistic option from a defensive point of view, he could be badly exposed.

That's one thing RAWK does better than us, aside from the seething, the beautiful tear jerking poems. Maybe we should go for some sonnets?

he is a big risk with a high back line and presumably could only play in the middle which leaves him marking the 9 which he is least suited to. Fellaini looks more likeley a candidate given his inability anywhere else and the fact he likes elbowing people. could be the new Jim Holton.

It was a bright and blustery Monday;
Somewhere on the vine
Whispers are heard
Jim is listening
A bird of Prey emerges from the shadows
Calls out
KAWWWW KAWWWW
It's cry heard across the land
Ears #@&%! up in the Chester of Man
Rumours and hear'say
Presumptions
To the Blue?
Nay! Sir! To the Red!
What is this?
This magic?
An american of the south
Joins a dutchman of the North
Some Argentine prime steaks are skewed
But no, not Andersons plate
A Tubby Jester from a port to the South
And the Spaniard



Goals! Attack! Forward!
The brave men in Red!
They go again but we go forth!
Forward!
Forward!
Forward!



Forward.....

They probably do better formation threads too tbh.

The boring windbags.
