I'm not so sure about Jones/Utd's backline in the short term and Arsenal's Koscielny has 1 CS more than Jones...

So I'm dropping Jones and Gallas (injured) to get in Assou and Koscielny.

Anyone else daft enough to put faith in the Arsenal back line?!

Never thought I'd say this, but it's viable. Having said that, haven't Arsenal got United coming up?

I wouldn't play Koscielny in that game... I just cannot see Utd putting together a string of CS now that all teams can smell their blood in the water

Best games from Utd came exactly when ppl could smell their blood in the water. (except the CL final last year, it was just obvious and nothing could be done :p )

People need to wake up and smell the coffee.

United are still strong.

They have played a RW and a CM in defense.

They are getting players back now.

Jones could do with a break from the front line,
looks in need of a rest and my money is on Bolton being the start of it ...

Agreed, he's getting found out now and has looked woeful in the last two games, him or Rio will be taking a break soon I'm guessing.

Think the whole Man United team ethic has been shaken up this season, teams know how to score against them now, and are doing so. Jones seems to have let the pressure of big time get the better of him. Boy, do they miss Vidic right now...

His bad games have been at centre back - he's been fine in midfield. He may just find swapping positions hard, given the different midset needed. And may be able to overcome that. He generally looks knackered anyway, so not much to read into that.
