anyone know why he keeps playing this awful formation. we play much better in a diamond. We need to move carrick back into midfield ffs. playing our best mf in defence is bizzare as is rooney in cm, need herrera there imo

    You've posted in the wrong thread :)

    I have no idea but I do know that you're talking about Man Utd. :D

    Mate, I'm totally with you on this - I hate the 3-5-2 formation and love United - but you're on the wrong forum :D.

    Just in case anyone gets confused, Louis Van Gaal is not a soap character :D.

    I thought this was the latest Corrie 'comedy' storyline.

    I wasn't a fan of the David Moyes recast.

    This is a new character. He will be a Dutch cousin of Roy.

    I think playing Max Branning in defence was his biggest mistake, if you're going to commit to 3-5-2 you want that back line to be absolutely solid, which you'd only get with someone like Abi or Kat holding the line.

    In the midfield, the most crucial element is your defensive defensive mid. Zak Dingle ticks all the boxes for me. Athletic, able to make decisions quickly, plays a solid long-ball, oafish wife cheering him on from the sidelines.

    The only other criticism I'd have on van Gaal's lineup would be his striking partnership. It will always be Deirdre and Des Lennis for me, the 'Double-D team'. Goals on tap when they are on the offensive.

    Surely Dot Cotton or Norris would be a better striker?
