There is a comment from a dutch journalist about depay (or depie as they say) on the talk sport pages. He makes him sound like an odd bod, and has reservations whether he would be good enough to come to the premier league. Has this Dutch journo ever seen Depay play? I don't care if he's a weirdo, he's a bloody good player. |

If you can't handle a bit of eccentricity alongside his mad skills and talent...   |

Is Depay not a right winger? If not then why the hell are we signing him? Mainly left. Can play either wing though. I don't even no where to begin with this. Let's have Young, Di Maris, Januzaj and Depay fighting it out to left winge whilst having a left footed number 10 being our only right winger. Van Gaal seems to hate right footed players. What the hell are we doing here? |

All can play on the right and the left. I would say that Adnan especially is better on the right. Depay is right footed, but I think van Gaal prefers the wide players to play on the opposite side to their preferred foot. |

What the hell are we doing here? Young is primarily a right footed RW converted into a role he has fulfilled with aplomb. Depay on the left side of the 3 upfront supporting Rooney, flanked by Mata on the right. ADM and Fellaini to fight for a place on the left of the midfield three. Januzaj will have to prove himself, cant rush him into the starting lineup. -----------------Rooney-------------- -------Depay---------------Mata----- ADM/Fella------------------------Herrera Blind/Carrick Difficult to leave out Young at the moment, but given his versatility, he can play across the 2nd row when in form. |

I think he's much more effective as a No 10. Which we don't really play at the moment... |

My mental breakdown will be pretty amusing otherwise |

Why though? Mata is fantastic out there, especially if we upgrade over the summer to have Clyne on the overlap. Januzaj can play that role, and they we have Lingard (maybe gets a chance) who can play as a more orthodox winger. Guile on one side, pace and power on the other.
BALANCE.

Or we could have the return of the interchangeable, front 3 swapping a la 2007-09?!!!!!!! |

I've said this before and without wanting to reinforce my point too much I agree with Bestie and stew, Januzaj isn't a winger.
He's better on the ball, through the middle at #10 and, quite frankly, I think he'd do exceptionally well up front with a partner like Wilson or just behind the striker.
