nani is too flashy, ball hogging, and doesn't have the required clinical finishing of a good striker :I

There was a game where United employed the diamond formation in the season when Ancelotti was still Chelsea's coach. I can't recall which players formed the diamond midfield, but it was horrible. They were a bit confused and didn't know how to play correctly in that formation.

Ferguson.442. etc.

Dont think he is ever going to change that pass it to wings cross it to box football, with Ronaldo you changed your system but a player like Ronaldo comes once in a while.

We only have two formations, 4-4-2 and 4-5-1. Fergie is too conservative to try another.

Why not this:

De Gea

Valencia/Rafael - Vidic/Evans - Ferdinand/Smalling -- Evra/Buttner

---------------------------Fletcher/Carrick

---------------Kagawa----------------------Cleverly/Scholes

RVP-------------------------Rooney-------------------------Nani

With RVP making diagonal runs and exchanging with Rooney and Valencia/Rafael overlapping, barça style. Could it work?

Forget the wingers.

de Gea
Rafael - Ferdinand - Evans - Buttner
Fletcher
Anderson - Cleverley
Rooney/Kagawa
van Persie/Rooney - Welbeck/Chicarito

Buttner and Rafael can both provide width cheers
