Louis van Gaal it seemed had found his best XI at the weekend in the 3-0 win over Everton.
And then he went and tinkered with it tonight for the Champions League’s Clash in Russia against CSKA Moscow.
He took out Juan Mata and brought in Jesse Lingard while Anthomy Martial, who did start on the wing in the win over Everton, was once again plonked out on the touchline where he’s been ineffective.
Well not totally, as he has helped the home side into the lead indirectly after he handled the ball in the box and Moscow scored from the resulting penalty

Naturally Manchester United fans are not happy with their big money signings being wasted on the wing while Wayne Rooney ploughs a lone furrow up front
Should an in-form Martial be forced onto the wing to accommodate an under-performing Wayne Rooney? #HalfTimeQuestion

Maybe Van Gaal has a short memory, but Anthony Martial looked quite good as a centre-forward. Might be an idea to move him back there #MUFC

Didn't hear anyone complaining about Rooney up top and Martial on the wing on Saturday when Rooney was killing it.

Really dislike how Anthony Martial is being forced out wide to accommodate Wayne Rooney. Played his best football centrally.
