Every time Utd. struggle its because of the system. But is it a system or stubbornness from Van Gaal? I know its common in Holland to play with inverted wingers, but why play Depay on the left when Young is available? Mata was being played out of position even before they got Martial and pushed Rooney back to CAM. The Blind-Smalling situation. etc. To blame the system of play on their performance is to have it both ways.
Except Mata has adapted and played well there. He got to play one game at #10 and absolutely stunk then.
