Rooney is fit for Manchester derby, Kagawa is
gaining match fitness and RVP is ready to lead front line for all 38 games of
season like last year. Moyes will have to solve a problem which may define his
career at Manchester United and that is how to play these three attacking
players together at same time
These three players played together for first time
against Spurs last season and showed what they can do together with 45 minutes
of great attacking football but after that even Sir Alex had no answer on how
to play them together. He didn’t have to give it much thought because of
injuries to Kagawa and Rooney for major parts of last season but David Moyes
has to find a way.
These three only played “8” of 54 games together last season
but will be expecting more game time this season
Initially Kagawa was signed to play as no 10 behind
Rooney but scenario changed when RVP was signed from Arsenal. Both Rooney and
Kagawa love to play as No. 10 behind RVP and that means one of them has to move
to left in order to play them together which will make one of them unhappy and
expect Klopp or Jose to be ready to come for the unhappy player.
A clear solution is to play 4-3-1-2 with Kagawa to
play in hole behind Robin and Rooney but Moyes is not the guy to try something
new, he didn’t do anything adventurous at his time at Everton and there is no
use to expect that from him now.So only thing left is “Rotation policy” which will see both of them playing alternately
or coming as a sub for each other after few games.
It will be interesting to see what Moyes do to keep
all of them happy and we (United fans) must believe in The Chosen One to
do the right thing. He must take care of this problem quickly as he also has
another player waiting to play in form of Javier Hernandez
