Ravel, Dhaeli, Macheda

Were these 3 together in the Man Utd academy?

There looked to be an excellent understanding between ravel and Macheda against Sheffield Wednesday and Machedas movement was excellent and allowed ravel to find him constantly. We didn't have the movement with Jones upfront who should either have another striker alongside him or be dropped.

Dhaeli was also excellent against Sheffield Wednesday and seemed to raise his game once ravel came on.

For me, these 3 must start against forest and I think a 4-2-2-2 would work. I would line up like:

Marshall

Brayford manga Connolly Fabio

-- Gunnarson Adeyemi

--- Dhaeli Ravel

-- Macheda Guerra

Gunnarson and Adeyemi holding to give us a solid base, Brayford and Fabio getting forward whenever possible to provide width.

Macheda and Ravel were in the same team at Man U. Daehli is 2-3 years younger don't think he would have played in the same team? But they probably all played together on the training pitch.
I don't know about Macheda maybe give him a chance to play with Ravel, but no adeyemi please, he just so poor on the ball. Him and gunnar together are a disaster where possession is concerned.

Too narrow and we would leave the full backs far exposed. Especially if they do get forward where possible... Needs some width.

Is this the Macheda that's done next to FA ?

I'd go for

2-2-2-2-2

Feck the width we haven't had any for a while so let's stop pussy footing around, twos are the new fours! :bluescarf:

Think we might get overrun in the middle sixth of the field?

Another one is the classic

1-2-1-2-1-2-1 excluding Marshall.

This formation can rotate through 90 degrees to form a flat 1-2-1-2-1-2-1 or a spearhead 1-2-1-2-1-2-1 with a sweeper at either end of the pitch. whilst defending the team could hunt in packs of 1 or even 2 giving ultimate flexibility.

If Ole had been given one more game he was planning on using this to turn around our fortunes. He'd reinforce this with his staple post match comments of "we need to shoot more" and selecting the team via a combination of postal ballot, drawing straws and using those annoying buzzer things from Britain's got talent. He'd also planned ban all training as the team needed time to recover from the previous games as they were struggling for fitness. Trust me I'm ITK big time!
