Yeah I do think Mata will happen now.

Gundogan no chance. There's not just that, there's also the little case of the world cup. He's in the perfect environment to get up to scratch before the world cup and has a big chance of starting now that Khedira is injured.

but just imagine if it did we'd be all so happy for a few weeks until we realise Moyes still doesnt know what he's doing, Gundogan will be playing as a holding player and Mata will be playing right wing

and Mata will be playing right wing

-------------------------------------

He may well play in a semi-right wing position for us. Or switching with Januzaj on the left. Rooney down the middle.

Darren when everyone is fit including Mata whats our best starting 11 in your opinion?

posted on 23/1/14

Hmm that's a difficult one because I think we'd still have to shoe horn players into positions.

But probably

De Gea
Rafael Smalling Evans Evra
Jones Carrick
Mata Rooney Adnan
RVP

Really hope Rooney doesnt go to Chelsea in the summer and we find out it was part of the Mata deal.

posted on 23/1/14

I wouldn't be that bothered if we strengthened the team adequately to make up for his departure.

I also think Mata is a better number 10 than Rooney anyway.

posted on 23/1/14

Would still rather he stayed and played as a cf for us, though, and wouldn't like to see him the blue of Chelsea because it just wouldn't seem right.

I wouldn't have minded Rooney plus cash for Mata and De Bruyne.

Was it that Mata has scored/assisted more than any other player in the Prem?

RVP's injuries are a bit of a concern though, TRS.

I rate RVP higher, as you know, but if they persist then we need to keep Rooney and just make him cf and Mata am our first choice.

It also has more of a future if that's the case.

The last thing we need is for Rooney to go and RVP gets crocked and then we need another cf. Try and sort the crucial areas first.

This is assuming we can convince Rooney to stay, however.

Ozil got 17 goals and cant find the assist stats

I'm going to be doing a RVP article this weekend when I have a bit of time. Apparently, Van Persie every 2 years feigns injury when he has Euros or a World Cup during 'the winter break'.

Not sure how accurate that is...

But we're getting Diego Costa so it's all good!

Seriously though, that's true Darren.

At the moment my gut feeling is that Rooney will leave at some point. I hope that's not the case and we can convince him to sign a new contract but right now I just don't see it happening unfortunately.
