"That is one argument why I chose this system. I can play them all - that is important," Louis van Gaal has said of squeezing Juan Mata, Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie all into the same Manchester United team. The problem, though, is that most of the players behind them are nowhere near their level and cannot exploit their talents.
For various reasons, United's three summer signings to date were not available to play in the 1-1 draw with Sunderland, meaning the entire midfield and defence was made up of players who could easily have left Old Trafford this summer without anybody batting an eye-lid.
