Would prefer VDV to adapt to playing in a 442
I agree with vanderbale, adapting VDV to play in a 442 would be great, and if we still have him could always revert to 4411 when 442 isn't working.
Ahh.. the VDV effect
There's no way he'll adapt to playing any other position i'm afraid, he wants to be on the ball too much to play as a striker and isn't fit enough to play in the middle of a 4-4-2.
Would I be happy if we got £15m for him? Depends who we could get in - his quality & experience is just what we need for the big CL games etc.
No, vdv still is one of our best players regardless of how you put it. I would much rather have VDV anytime over Defoe. Van der Vaart usually does a lot in a game so it's not just his goals although he has been a bit low on the goal scoring front this season. We have options now with Saha but Van der Vaart turns up in the big games almost all the time so i wouldn't hesitate in starting him v arsenal if he's fit
Van Der Vaart is a winner, he was part of taking us to the next level, don't wish players like him away after finally attracting someone of his quality..
Yep agree with Chetspurs I'm sure the 4411 could work also
VDV with dem electric shock belts on would be perfection (the RDBD will teach you where not to go on the pitch) .
That aside, he is a big game player who often delivers (NLD etc) .

Answering your question also, no I wouldn't give vdv away for 15million, he's too valuable and a very commited person, so we need to show commitment to him

That might have the desired effect..
Do we need Van Der Vaart?
Of course we need him. He's one of our best players. Is this a serious article?
Nika - I think the title's more to gain responses, the article asks whether we could replace him with someone better suited
NikaModcar, I am not saying he is a bad player, but sometimes it seems like square pegs in round holes. We play best in a 4-4-2 but he can't play in that formation. He can only play in a 4-4-1-1, which isn't our best formation.
