Edit: That first half was like watching Korean league soccer. United shooting from miles outside the box rather than trying to build any kind of propper attack or penetration.

With that personnel it would've been better to play a normal 4-4-2 and do this: . Indeed that is a rather weird player selection for that formation. This is also a big problem with van Gaal though, he can be criminally stubborn to the point that his sides can finish very low. He either gets sacked or turns it around in time. | ||

Regarding the Ajax-Feyenoord thing, I really hope that was just an unfortunate coincidence and that it wasn't a man-made fire. And I hope Milik and co. win the game on Sunday (sorry Ysellian) ![]() | ||

All it does is add another midweek fixture to an already packed fixture list (especially for lower league teams) that's not even interesting most of the time. No way Cambridge is winning at Old Trafford. Regarding the Ajax-Feyenoord thing, I really hope that was just an unfortunate coincidence and that it wasn't a man-made fire.

That's probablly about half their anual income again from one game. Cambridge United will be very happy with the replay. | ||

Arsenal are lining up a move for Real Madrid midfielderAsier Illarramendi, according to Spanish newspaperMarca. With Los Blancos on the verge of completing a swoop for Brazilian star Lucas Silva, Arsene Wenger could take advantage of the situation with a move for the former Real Sociedad player. Arsenal are planning a raid on Borussia Dortmund for Kevin Grosskreutz, according to Metro. Reports suggest the Gunners have made a £3.7m bid for the German utility player. Arsenal target Gabriel Paulista has been left out of Villarreal's squad for their game against Levante tonight, leading to speculation the Brazilian defender is closing in on a move to north London. Arsene Wenger revealed there is a 50:50 chance of the defender joining Arsenal this month in his pre-Brighton press conference. | ||

[...] That´s not gonna happen :D Grosskreutz is the least likely player to leave Dortmund, he´d probably play for them in 2.Bundesliga if that were to occur. | ||

Großkreutz would probably retire before he willingly transferred. He's one of the most loyal footballers out there. The idea that anyone is going to buy a Dortmund player is just laughable and is typical English transfer media. No one from the Dortmund squad is going to leave at this point in the season. Depending on how the Rückrunde goes, they might, but not now and not in this situation. | ||

Depending on how the Ruckrunde goes, they might, but not now and not in this situation. I think Großkreutz would play for 1. FC Köln (Cologne) and Celtic Glasgow. He's a huge fan of both teams but they'd be a second option if there was no place in Dortmunds first team roster anymore. | ||

Villarreal want Arsenal to play his 20m euro release clause to sign him, but it's being said that Arsenal will offer Joel Campbell (on loan, it seems) as part of the deal. | ||
