Will the striker spearhead the Reds today? Forget the defeat to Arsenal in the FA Cup, forget the draws away at WBA, Aston Villa, Stoke City, Sunderland and Burnley, you can even forget the two defeats to Swansea. United’s real push for that coveted fourth spot begins today with the visit of Tottenham Hotspur, one of the few sides that can actually rival the Reds in the ‘frustratingly inconsistent’ stakes.
United cannot afford to drop points against a side it’s almost been taken for granted won’t make the top four, the problem is a win today for the North Londoners and not only does it throw another team into the mix for Champions League places, it severely damages the Reds chances- not to mention morale.
The knives are already out for Van Gaal by many Reds and if he is to silence the critics then a win against a side that even with the free scoring Harry Kane are very beatable is the perfect answer.
Here’s how the Reds could line up:
[ 4-3-3] David De Gea, Antonio Valencia, Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo, Luke Shaw, Michael Carrick, Daley Blind, Ander Herrera, Wayne Rooney, Adnan Januzaj, Radamel Falcao.
Do you agree?
yes
like ds formation ba will prefer young on de left wing and Rafael at left back
de Gea
Rafael Jones Rojo Shaw
Herrera Carrick Blind
Januzaj Rooney Young
with herrera playing more of attacking midfielder behind Rooney.
We need young and mata instead of rubish.luke saw.
Where’s Mata been? Why isn’t he playing? It’s like he’s at Chelsea all over again. Does well for a nice spell then never gets another sniff…guess we will be selling him…too bad
manutd is going to win by 3 goals to 1
Nice formation buh wld stil prefer Rafael on the ryt full back with Herrera in d attacking midfield position..this is a must win match!
Yes Rafael and young and mata ll b preferable
tottenham to win 2-1 they are playing better atm, but januzaj to score
I wouldn’t like to see Blind and Carrick in midfield, they’re both too slow.
Nice 4mation though….but I wil prefer rafael 2 Valencia mata 2 falcao den young 2 januzaj
yeh dis match wil really suit juan mata.
Dis squad is enogh to beat spur 3-0.
