Perlawanan Yang Ditunggu: Manchester United vs QPR

Malam ini seolah-olah BPL menyediakan khusus perlawanan antara MU dengan QPR ini. Begitu juga perlawanan (La) Liga BBVA yang melibatkan pasukan ternama seperti Barcelona dan Real Madrid dalam minggu ketiga telah tamat berlangsung. Menyaksikan Barcelona terus mengungguli carta dan menyaksikan kekalahan Real Madrid 1-2 kepada pasukan juara musim lalu Athletico Madrid. Dengan hanya terdapat satu perlawanan dijangka seluruh dunia akan tertumpu kepadanya. Tambahan pula berjuta-juta peminat bola seluruh dunia sudah pasti ternanti-nanti aksi Radamel Falcao pemain yang baru disambar oleh MU. Aku sendiri ternanti-nanti gandingan Robin van Persie dan Radamel Falcao dengan Rooney bertindak sebagai backup striker.

Dengan Diego Costa berjaya menjaringkan hatrik apabila Chelsea menewaskan Swansea, pasti tekanan dirasakan oleh Falcao untuk membuktikan pelaburan MU tidak silap.

Barisan pemain yang akan diturunkan malam ini:

Man Utd: De Gea, Evans, Blackett, Rojo, Da Silva, Di Maria, Ander Herrera, Blind, Mata, Rooney, Van Persie.

Subs: Shaw, Falcao, Januzaj, Lindegaard, Fletcher, Valencia, Pereira.

Gary Neville always thought the manager of Manchester United should be British. He said it privately, he said it publicly.

He stated it very passionately one night in Barcelona, when the dwindling embers of the David Moyes era were being raked over following a Champions League match.

Neville was adamant, defiant, that Manchester United should resist the appeal of a foreign coach. In his eyes this meant giving Moyes more time but it was plain that, even if a change had to be made, Neville felt the successor must hail from within these shores.

Others disagreed, and spoke of the practical realities, but he was insistent. It was what made United unique, he said. It was part of the culture of the club. A British manager affording opportunity to young British players. It was what set Manchester United apart.

Not any more. Sunday, September 14, 2014, is the first day of the new Manchester United. Against Queens Park Rangers at Old Trafford, a foreign coach will preside over a starting XI of mostly foreign, expensively-acquired, players. If there are English names on the team-sheet they will have been purchased for a king’s ransom, just like the rest.

If Jonny Evans or Darren Fletcher does make the starting line-up, they will merely be keeping that seat warm until the injury list shortens or the next transfer window signals another round of improvements. The vow these days is to buy the equivalent of one Luis Suarez every year. Ryan Giggs says United will continue giving youth its chance but, like Neville, he sounds like a man out of time.

A project that intends to take a team from seventh place to automatic Champions League qualification in one season is in too much of a hurry to rely on old-style youth development.

Louis van Gaal’s overhaul has cast out some ordinary players, but it cannot help but scratch the odd gem, too: one of its first casualties would appear to be Adnan Januzaj, the rising star of the previous campaign, now pegged behind a who’s who of world football. His starting opportunities would appear bleakly limited, short-term at least.

It isn’t that Manchester United’s spending spree is immoral — they’ve got it, so why not flaunt it — or even that towards the end the purchases seemed to be based on what was available, rather than what was required. Everyone agreed significant investment was needed. The Class of 92 was a beautiful windfall, but United have not produced talent in any depth since then and waiting for the next generation would have seen the club slip further from the elite.

Ed Woodward, the executive vice-chairman, took a big gamble, but a necessary one, the Glazers having got away with reduced investment for so long. Positively thinking, there is a genuine sense of anticipation and wonder around the team Van Gaal will field tomorrow, the biggest buzz in English club football for several years. But is it United? No. Not the one Neville, Giggs and many others thought they knew. Not the United that Sir Alex Ferguson nurtured.

It is United as Manchester City, as Chelsea, as Real Madrid or Inter. It is Manchester United Internationale, the way every modern elite club, with one or two exceptions, is now a melting pot of star names and contracted performers, passing through as if on tour.

Cristiano Ronaldo was an unforgettable force for good at United but, ultimately, his team was Real Madrid. Old Trafford was a mutually beneficial stop on a career path that began at Sporting Lisbon and ended at the Bernabeu. Radamel Falcao talks of staying at United for many years, but this is a vague notion also. He was ‘eager to start the challenge’ and ‘very happy’ at Monaco, too, a year ago. ‘I have chosen this project,’ he announced. Now he has chosen another one.

So this team may achieve great things, but it is not like the old days. One does not see Falcao, Angel di Maria and Marcos Rojo sinking their savings into Atletico Salford 10 years from now. And with this new dynamic come changing attitudes, in the boardroom and also the cheap seats. No club ends up with the most expensively assembled squad in the Premier League, and settles for life outside the Champions League just three games into the season.

Manchester United may be in 14th place now, but that is only seven points from the top and five behind the automatically qualified third-placed team, currently Aston Villa, who nobody thinks will be there come the end of the season.

There are 105 points up for grabs from here, including home and away fixtures against every current Premier League club that has ever qualified for the Champions League in its modern format. So it’s on.

With the names on their roster, United’s owners now have every reason to expect to make the top three this season. And that is a sign of shifting times, too. Moyes would undoubtedly have been given a longer run, if only his first season had not been such a disaster.

Van Gaal’s reputation may buy him indulgence, but there will also be irritation if he does not turn this ship around, and fast. The board will not see the mitigation of a squad brought together in haste and on the hoof; they will see numbers, big numbers, and with them comes a demand for results.

At Old Trafford, too, there may be an unfamiliar atmosphere. The majority of United fans were steadfastly supportive of Moyes even when they knew his regime was damaged beyond repair. There will be a huge sense of excitement around tomorrow’s game — but what if the change in fortunes is slow to unfold? Not against QPR, now viewed more as cannon fodder than tomorrow’s opposition, but against Chelsea on October 26, Manchester City on November 2 or Arsenal on November 22?

The club that Neville and Giggs knew enjoyed a special relationship with its home-produced players. David Beckham summed it up last week. ‘When you are a young player at United, when you are there from a young age and are home-grown, you feel it from the fans,’ he said. #

‘You have a really special bond and association with them. You are their player. When we were successful, when we were winning European Cups, leagues and FA Cups, it felt really personal from the fans, like how I feel when I see my son score a goal, or how my parents felt when they saw me win a championship. You feel like you have 75,000 parents watching you in the stands. That’s how Manchester United have always been.’

So while the new signings are not exactly orphans — Ronaldo was loyally supported, too, after the 2006 World Cup — they will not be as tenderly indulged through the difficult times. It was easy to support Ronaldo. He was a budding genius, and an important part of a very successful team. Yet what of a striker earning in the region of £300,000 who is not performing, in a team that has failed to click?

Even Tom Cleverley, with United from the age of 11, spoke of the oppressive tension around the club last season. What if this continues? Will Falcao feel he has 75,000 parents too? Or will he be like Mesut Ozil at Arsenal, or Fernando Torres at Chelsea, judged in relation to his transfer fee, salary and performance? Jack Wilshere gets an easier ride than Ozil ever will, for the reasons Beckham identified.

So this is it for United. Day one of a new era. The club Red Nev thought he knew no longer exists. Manchester United will look the same and sound the same tomorrow — they may even play the same if Van Gaal can overcome the time-poor restrictions of the international break to restore some of the old swagger.

Yet they are not the same. United are like the rest from here: only richer, grander and with great, great expectations.
