When have Manchester United played well this season? The 5-3 defeat at Leicester City featured some good attacking football in patches, despite its farcical defending from a United point of view. The 4-0 win over Queens Park Rangers in September suggested that everything was going to click and they were impressive in the first half at Tottenham Hotspur, but faded after the break, while they took Newcastle United and Liverpool apart at Old Trafford recently. Mostly, though, United have plodded. And United are not supposed to plod, they are supposed to capture the imagination. At least, that is what they did under Sir Alex Ferguson. Since his departure, however, watching United has been a bit of a chore and that should not be the case with the players at Louis van Gaals disposal. However badly they need to get back on track after losing against Southampton, Saturdays trip to QPR is a fine opportunity for United to reintroduce some fantasy into their play
