Out of all the comments on the game this one sticks out, this couldn't be more true.
Our problem with not playing 2 strikers from the start is there is no one in midfield to control play; Fellaini cannot impose himself enough on a whole game, Rodwell is very defensive (and good at it), Cahill is not creative, Osman just seems to be outplayed a lot this season and Bily is a winger.
