We need Herrera and Morgan in the team with Pogba, that should be the midfield, with speed and pressure. Rooney and the wig must be out.

When has Scheiderln had a good game? How consistent is Hererra? Everyone wants to chop and change the players but the players are good enough, they are simply not playing well.

Totally agree redcon.
I also feel as long as fellaini is partnered with Pogba in midfield, the shackles will remain on and restrict the movement in midfield.
Jose admires the physicality fellaini brings, but he struggles in other areas. ie cannot dictate play, distribute the ball nor can he receive a ball in to feet under pressure and keep play ticking.
Until fellaini is replaced, I feel Pogba won't be allowed to play his game.
Rooney situation I'm not even going to get in to. but I feel ibra would be better suited in no10 role with rashford or martial playing higher up. Mkhi would also love the no10 role. but regardless of who. there are better options than rooney in the squad now.
I believe Jose will get it right but he needs to make big decisions on dropping certain players very soon if we are to turn this around.

AJH.
Morgan and Herrera are good players.
I remember last year Morgan having a run of 4-5 good games and then LVG dropping him and him never finding the rhythm.
Herrera is very attack minded if given the freedom, he used to play no.10 and did start the season well before Jose played Pogba ahead of him.
1-2 games with Herrera, Schneiderlin and Pogba in midfield and you could see us having 60% possession stats and total domination.

Agree leelee. Zlatan often played in the no10 position for PSG. It will allow Rashford to play up top and martial and mkhitarian to play wide. It's not perfect as we do not have a natural winger, but it's the best solution.
{Ed001's Note - Rashford is a natural winger.}

I think people just want to try things as it is pretty dire at the minute. Personally, I thought Fellaini did ok today, considering he was looking after the whole midfield and trying to cover defence too. I'm not his biggest fan, but to blame hime for the past week is very harsh indeed. With Rooney, he should be played as a striker or not at all. If we are playing one up top, it needs to be him or Zlatan at once. He offers nothing in CM and struggles elsewhere too.

I agree on felli brendan and unfortunately I'm beginning to agree on Rooney that was one of the worst performance I have seen from a united player.
Something has to give we have the right manager the right players the right infrastructure and we are going nowhere.
