Manchester United Football Formation

Creation DateSeptember 4, 2013

Lineup (4-3-3)

De Gea · Ferdinand · Vidic · Evra · Rafael · Carrick · Fellaini · Rooney · Nani · Kagawa · Van Persie

Best Starting XI for Manchester United.

Easy to choose back four, and De Gea is obvious number 1. Carrick and Fellaini holding mids, (Fellaini such a big presence we have been missing). Rooney in front of those two but not to far forward, Rooney can put in a great work load, and if he is in the right frame of mind once he returns from injury he will be a great addition to that attacking mid spot. Outside I have Kagawa and Nani, with Kagawa shifting inside more to support RvP and Nani can play more of a natural wingers role. Evra can bomb up and down the left flank with Carrick and Fellaini to cover him. Kagawa needs to drift inside to support RvP and Nani and Rafael can combine well on the right hand side. Obvious choice up top is RvP but we have to make sure he is not isolated. Against Chelsea and Liverpool he was by himself up there and struggled to get anything going. Hernandez will do well as he always does, an impact sub. Valencia can take Nani place if need be and Giggs, Welbeck and maybe even Januzaj can play Kagawas role against lesser teams. This is our strongest 11 IMO.
