Vangaal- the pre-season one

They play Liverpool, so I was afraid they'll concede more than 2goals

I know their defence is rubbish but we'll see though

Their attacking is even more toothless without a skillful dribbler. They are playing exactly like Netherlands without robben.

Exactly, I want them to win so they don't bid 80mil on Dimaria on Monday

Gerrard scored from the penalty spot last season more than any other team. Most was a result of those two. We can say they dive a lot but they don't slow down but instead get into the box as much as possible compared to hazard that prefers to stay near the edge. He gets fouled a lot but how many times are they in dangerous places?

Baines is a goal scoring and assist defender so I had to put him there. I might change jagielka but I'm not sure who costs 5.5 that is better

I had to make some changes. I need more firepower upfront than midfielders like young.... Team kellzfresh:

This is what someone else said I should dojust take a print screen of the team and used imgur to get a link to be able to post it here, there might be an easier way to do it tho (Could't find a way to upload an image localy from my computer ).

He doesn't even need to be too direct. All he has to do is to quickly dribble into the 18box as fast as possible to make defenders not dare to slide tackle or risk penalties. This is why sterling and Suarez won a lot of penalties, because of how quickly they get into the box, to force the defender to make a decision. If he doesn't do this, they'll keep on triple marking him and fouling him outside dangerous areas, and stop our attacks easily. I wish there was a site to show hazards heat map and positions he occupies on the pitch compared to reus/sterling/schurlle (more direct players)

Khedira reminds me of costa. Because he isn't skillful or flashy, people totally ignore how intelligent a footballer he is and underrate him. Khedira Alonso Ôzil This is the midfield that played the most exciting football in laliga and hold the goals record in all top5 leagues 121goals. Khedira was a chief part of their campaign, and his football intelligence is severely underrated imo.

Exactly. I think mou is looking for who is available. If Dimaria/reus/benatia is available, why not? Every manager wants to improve his side if the option is available.

Exactly. Atletico is not that much a step up from Dortmund. Only in terms of better finance but not prestige or size

Shit one of my favorite players... I have a feeling that if our right AM doesn't deliver we will sign reus/Dimaria in January to strengthen our title charge and put our team as the best 4 in world football again.

Thanks a lot The only change I could make is to put giroud up front for Lukaku. But I'll wait till tomorrow

I'm new to this, but I think people that offer goals/assist get you more points

benzema Ronaldo James Bale Kroos modric Marcelo Ramos pépé carvajal Vs Neymar Messi Suarez Rakitic Iniesta Busquets Alba matteiu pique alves Elclassico will be crazy. Which lineup is scarier

And Dimaria wants to work with Mourinho again. Only on this combined occasion before it makes any sense, until then, NO.

To say those throughball stats are poor is an understatement. Wtf!! That's why it seemed like we always gave the ball to ivanovic to cross or hazard to dribble 2defenders and cross as our only moves. Just look at our supposed attacking midfielders through balls in 25+ games, I mean Matic came in January and gave more through balls than oscar and Willian combined Let's hope it was because of torres that it was that bad. Costa will scream at pple this season, if they don't raise their heads up and spot his runs.

Each time I read we attempted fewer through balls than Norwich, it bemuses me. How bad was our lack of movement to get less than 1.5 throughpasses per game? This is another reason schurlle must start, we need the runs as much as the vision from fabregas.

My team: Schezny Debuchy jagielka baines Young Huddlestone Gerrard Ramsey(v)hazard Lukaku Costa© Bench: begovic, vlaar, shotton, vas-te

I predict 3-1 our defense will not be as good as last season but our attacking will surely be better now with fabregas and Costa. This is our strongest team since we last won the league, this is Mourinho's second season where he delivers the most.
