Hopefully after Fabio's loan spell he comes back like Rafael. It would be lethal with Rafael/Valencia link-up on the right and Fabio/Nani on the left.

I loved the lineup for that Arsenal game last year with Rafael and Fabio on the wings and we won. And didn't Fabio score? We haven't had an "experimental" line up like that all season.

Anybody notice how Valencia took way more shots than usual during the United vs Villa game? SAF has obviously told him he has a lethal shot and to use it more often. He took about 6 shots during the game and majority got blocked but looked as if they were on target. They were very powerful aswell.

I also noticed that his crossing was also much more powerful (obviously still on the floor) and if it got 1 touch from any player it would go in...

The lad is simply class, Many people wrote him off as being injury-prone and ill disciplined but this season when he has played he has been great going both ways. Him and Valencia have a great understanding between them when Rafael gets forward Valencia tracks back and when Rafael needs help Valencia is always there helping out, If we can get Nani back on form on the left wing we will be sorted and he seems to be coming back to fitness so im looking forward to the last few games.

I thought he was superb & is my man of the match. combined well with Valenci***

Thought it was a cracking match, thought ALL players were top, but i actually thought Valencia gave the ball away quite abit in the 1st half, still played well, but wouldnt say man of the match. :-)

Gets a lot more criticism than credit. He's playing well again but i think the rotation of right backs is slowing down his progress.

3 points closer to the title.And nice to get a big win again.Good to see Nani back with a goal and Valencia making yet another assist.Think he has 13,same as Silva but with less games played than him im sure.Scholes HAS to start every game until the title is wrapped up.We are so much more confident with him in the team

i always thought he was more of an attacking fullback but he's been defensively sound lately also

good work

he is a gem and has all the tools to be top drawer. took some flak from a lot of people on here not so long ago but he is serving up some sweet, sweet humble pie with his performances. one of my favourite players for us, love his attitude.

really pleased with the way we played today...yes rooney was showing signs of being overworked but the overall attacking play was excellent and up to par or better than a 300 million blue team who played yesterday.

Very happy with the energy and attitude today. There was a very short spell at 2-0 where I was concerned, but overall fantastic result! Good 15-20 min for Cleverly. Nice confidence goal for Nani. Hernandez will be forced to up his game now with Berbatov chosen ahead of him. Goal Difference is restored. Perfect response to a defeat, perfect response to City's empahatic win. Perfect Sunday. Enjoy..........
