wow. Something we've all been waiting for. Exciting and purposeful. WE ARE BACK!
1) What A Frontline
A frontline with di Maria (ADM), Mata, Rooney and RVP is scary enough, then you add Falcao into the mix and what you have is something that will instill fear in the best of defences. Hopefully this bunch can go on to score a ton of goals this season. Will be very exciting to watch. ADM in particular is the creative force behind alot of our forays up front.
2) Midfield Impressario
In Daley Blind and Ander Herrera we have one of the best midfield partnerships since Scholes-Keane. With them around, you always felt assured like even if the opponents had the ball, we'd nick it back off them. Hopefully they can stay healthy. It looks like Fletcher is a definite benchwarmer now.
3) A Better Formation
By switching to 4-4-2, or more correctly, 4-1-3-2, our defence really looked alot more solid. Evans and Blackett at the back is far more assuring in a foursome than a trio. Tyler Blackett, oh my, something about him that is so non-flashy yet so self-assured. Mind you he's our only academy product who's started all four games this EPL. Glad to have Rafael back, and Marcos Rojo also put in a fairly good shift. DDG in goal was imperious as usual.
4) Falcao
It's weird that a player on load would command so much pre-match excitement in Manchester United. Coming off ACL surgery (been there done that), paid 300,000 pounds weekly, I kind of get the feeling that he might prove to be a disappointment when the season ends. Sure he'll bang in a few goals, but seeing him come on for the last 15mins last night, I wasn't that impressed by his performance. If there's one thing good that he's done though, its to put pressure on the other strikers like Rooney and RVP.
5) Early Days
So it was just QPR, and its only the 4th game of the season. Yet this was our first win. Hopefully we go on a long streak like the old days. Am trying not to get overexcited, but looking at the players we now have on board, how not to be? I'm expecting us to wipe out every other team from this game on this season. Hopefully I won't be too disappointed.
GGMU!!!
