Speaking of quality banters, the not-so heated debate over Louis van Gaal’s 3-5-2 formation for Manchester United between Sky Sports Football Pundits and former Manchester United and Liverpool stars Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher before Chelsea’s win at Burnley.was quite the debate.

The duo talk about van Gaal’s new formation where the Dutch uses two wing backs and three central defenders, questioning whether Manchester United have the players to cope up with the physicality this role demands.

Neville insisted that this formation is hard to pull off since it requires a higher level of technical quality and fitness, something which the former Manchester United captain believes the squad lacks. Carragher on the other hand was stern on his idea of believing that being a full back is almost the same as a wing back in modern football.
