Manchester United Formation 2012

Manchester United Football Formation

Creation DateNovember 25, 2012

Lineup (3-4-3)

De Gea · Ferdinand · Evans · Evra · Rafael · Jones · Anderson · Cleverley · Rooney · Van Persie · Hernandez

Man Utd vs West Ham (Best Lineup possible?)

Went for the back 4 as, although it has let in many goals this season, I believe they have can produce a certain solidity with a decent screen.

This is where Phil Jones comes in - providing that screen for ferdinand and evans, would be great to have his height in there for set pieces and he'll get forward with those devastating runs.

Cleverley and Anderson are constantly looking forward, recycle the ball extremely well and it's about time they get their start as a pairing in the league this season.

Rooney and RVP have been as key in providing assists this season as they have scoring - a huge percentage of goals this season have come from headers assisted by one or the other - allowing for both of them to cut in onto their preferred foot would also greatly benefit our attacking options.

Hernandez is on fire and stretches a defence by making those incisive runs - distracting them from closing down the likes of Rooney and RVP

The formation could also morph into a 4-4-2 diamond with rooney at the top of the diamond and rvp alongside chicha
