    Kane and Eriksen have been fantastic this season
    Eriksen should go to United, I think they lack some creativity and a good striker.

    You don't understand Van Gaal? Neither do I/we in the Netherlands. He has been changing tactics almost every week, hasn't he?

    He's persisting with 5-3-2 (or 3-5-2), much to the dismay of many fans. He says that seeing Man Utd play 4-4-2, or a variation of, twitches his ass.

    “I know that with 4-4-2, the stats are showing positive results, we have won more games playing 4-4-2 with a diamond, but when you analyse the game, we have twitched our ass on the bench. I said to my players I was squeezing my ass, but it was the wrong expression – I have twitched my ass on the bench because we were out of balance. When you go back to the press conferences at the time, I have said that we are not in balance [with 4-4-2]. We lost the game against Leicester City 5-3 and that was undeserved, and all the matches when we played 4-4-2, like against West Ham United, it was always twitching your ass and I don’t like it."

    Defensively, we have a good record (3rd best in the league) and things seems to be back on track at Old Trafford (2nd best home form) but the play is dire. Despite the defensive record, it doesn't matter if we play a flat back four or 3 centre backs, I know what he means when he says his ass twitches. David De Gea is responsible for most of that record. In attack, we have one of the best groups of players in Europe (Falcao, van Persie, Rooney, Mata, Di Maria...) yet they just look utterly clueless. Very little creativity between them.

  8. Yes, thanks Pato! I had looked at some of those myself. I've been swamped this week though, haven't had chance to organise a new round and it's a little short notice now. My apologies, we'll be back next week.

    I didn't remember you were attending! So glad you enjoyed it I have seen many many Atleti shows including one against Real Madrid in a seat close to that you had. My best friend and his family have season tickets since lots of years ago, and I go every now and then. Vicente Calderón is a temple for me, it's the first place where I saw U2 back in 2005 and I have been to many legendary shows and matches there since then. I hope you go back soon
