Manchester United Football Formation

Lineup (4-1-2-3)

This is the Manchester United team I want to play on a regular basis (assuming no new signings in January). Evans and Jones are the future of the United defence and both are better than Ferdinand now although it might be harsh to keep Vidic out. Fletcher can protect the defence. Carrick can control the game and collect passes from fullbacks and Fletcher and send it forward. He and Fletcher both can drop back a bit when Rafael and Evra go forward. Rooney can drop deep when the team need to defend against teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid, etc but in most matches can support RvP and also send balls out wide to Januzaj and Valencia both of whom must run beyond the opposition defence to support RvP and get on the end of through balls from Rooney. Rooney can run into the box like Scholes used to, to get onto the end of crosses from Januzaj and Valencia. RvP will be in the box and will hold up play when necessary.
