Because if you base this philosophy on the previous first eleven you’d have to make 8 or 9 changes.
Also, even if he had made the two changes you suggested he’d have still played the same formation because it worked once before. City out thought it after five minutes and we’re incapable of changing it.
What we’re doing now is looking for a new excuse every week to try and deflect the attention away from the management. One week it’s De Gea, then it’s Fred, then it’s Maguire and so on and so on.
The manager believes he’s so far in to a project that’s almost working that if he makes serious changes now it’s an admission of defeat. No manager is going to do that unfortunately.
