I think we should keep Di Maria and play like this:



Mata is way too slow for the right wing IMO. He makes a lot of back passes to Valencia because of his inability to use pace. AMF would suit him best.

Fellaini should only be used as an impact sub. Mata has more goals and assists than him so he should start over him.

If Depay plays well, Young would serve as an excellent backup. We also have Nani who had a decent season in Portugal.

We need at least: a replacement for Carrick, a centre back, a right back and a GK to replace DdG. Also may need a backup for Rooney if RvP is leaving. Benteke would be fantastic but we are not after him.

I like that formation, on form Rooney is probably among the best strikers in a world ... but his inconsistent form and fitness worries me ... also, RVP passed his prime ... I think we need to sell RVP, buy a new striker ... my favorite is Benzema ... maybe in some kind of deal with De Gea.

Schneiderlin to replace Carrick and CDM role
Otamendi for someone CB
Begovic to replace DDG and compete with Valdes
Not sure about RB, we are linked with Alves, but he's 32 and EPL is not most suited for his style ... how about vad der wiel?

We are involved in European football this year so we need more depth, btw, you can always swap Di Maria with Mata and Mata with Fellaini in your system ;-)

You guys not fond of Daley Blind?

I really like Schneiderlin but I would be cautious about signing from Southampton and expecting those players to be as good for you as they were for them, the experiences of Liverpool and others last season make me wonder if it's as much about the ethos of Southampton as the players themselves which result in such good performances.

I am suspicious of van der Wiel because I remember some super dodgy performances in a Holland shirt.

Those transfers you name all seem fine, but relaly I think you can afford to be a little more ambitious. It's mostly all bringing players up from lesser clubs, good players, but you never know how well this will work. Alright, Di Maria and Falcao wee not huge successes last season but they showed that you could still bring in big name players from big clubs, you had to pay through he nose, but you can afford to pay through the nose. I think you should aim for at least one or two big star names, just maybe research them a little better and take more time over the transfers this time.

So bench or sell Mata and Di Maria in fsvor of big money moves for Kane and Turan? I think those guys can be salvaged and if they are they are much more influential than your suggestions.

Mata is brilliant, he just needs a system that covers his flaws. He was one of the best playmakers in the world for 2 years with us.

Torres has taught me that just because you spend a tonne of cash on someone does not always mean you should stick with them out of obligation if it doesnt work out at the beginning, but would say it is worth giving Di Maria a bit longer unless an appealing offer for him comes in.

I don't know about this actually - as I have said before, there seems to be a trend of average managers loving him, but great managers being much more skeptical. Yes, he does some very flashy things, and has a great attitude and personality, but bear in mind that the period he was an active first teamer at Chelsea was our poorest period in the last decade, and the period he was an active first teamer for United was their poorest period in the last decade. Not all down to him, of course, and I admit I cant really spot what it is about him/what it is that he does wrong, but all these different things add up to too much to ignore.
