De Gea Smalling Jones Vidic Evra Valencia Cleverley Kagawa Young Van Persie Rooney Verdict: Although this would give United the look and feel of the old-school team, the game has evolved enough for this to perhaps be a redundant formation. The right-back area is an area of concern for United no matter what the formation, and the lack of a defensive midfielder in this formation means that Rio Ferdinand would have to miss out for me due to his lack of pace in the twilight of his career. This would be a decent option against sides where you are likely to be on the front-foot for most of the game, but in matches where you may be on the back foot at times, it could come undone. Rating: 5/10
