And just to clarify, we all know Fergie has forgotten more about football than we'll ever know..but that shouldn't stop us from pointing out the glaringly obvious.
it's like computer games, i haven't got a clue how to design and build an online shooter game but i've played enough to know when it's £#%&!ing up and been done poorly and i've paid £60 for it. |

Another thing to note about SAF's insistence on rotating players, back then we had more strength in depth, so rotating said players was a lot easier Now with a weaker squad compared to yester years what we need is a settled spine and adjustments made in and around them depending on who we play It really isn't that hard IMO Scholes & Giggs can still play a role for us but not starting in midfield against a dynamic Spurs side. At home to Reading or something fair enough but not Spurs and def not Citeh away in a title decider :shakehead: As MJ said earlier I'd much rather see some of the younger guys be given a chance in the team even if we do lose a couple games. Instead of Cleverly playing a couple nice one twos and being hyped to high heaven just because he doesn't pass the ball sideways. It's not fair on him and it doesn't give us a balanced view on what state put team/squad is in |

It is really quite alarming that he picked Scholes and Giggs again yesterday after the woeful performance at Anfield. Perhaps you can make an argument for Scholes but Giggs(who I love like Bors loves Scholes) has not produced a performance bar the odd individual moment since the end of the 10/11 season. Up against Walker and Lennon on that side was embarassing to watch
Carrick is 31 now as well, it is easy to forget that with his pensioner teammates. Even at his peak he was not an all action midfielder. Putting those 3 out against a very mobile and aggressive Spurs midfield was asking for trouble, and most of the forum expected to see what actually transpired. You also have a Rio who is perhaps 70% of what he was and the midfield can not offer any cover, it creates such a soft central area and Spurs exploited it in the first half. Anderson not starting can be understood, he looked shattered at the end of the Newcastle match, but Cleverley had his best spell towards the end of that game, scored a match winning goal and visibly lifted in confidence after that goal. Very surprised that he did not start. |

it's worth pointing out that we've no young players anywhere near as good as neville g, neville p, butt, scholes and beckham when people are asking why doesn't fergie risk the youngsters.
we should have replacements for giggs, scholes and keane and we don't, but that's a different argument altogether. |

evra's pace is fine. it's his positioning and concentration that have been the problem. fergie's not been indecisive with the keepers. he prefers lindegaard atm, clearly. you might disagree but there's nothing indecisive about it. |

We all know he's never going to address the glarin omissions in our squad, as past transfer window activity or lack of has proved But it's just the odd personel choices he makes with what's available that's really baffling I think anyone with a slight bit of knowledge of football could have told you we'd be trouble from the moment the team sheet was put out. But for some reason SAF deemed it acceptable and to some degree didn't change it in the 2nd half considering the subs made He rarely if ever changes our shape with intelligent subs anymore, it's just the usual throw on more strikers whenever we're losing attitude :shakehead: |

Lets face it, Ferie has always made a few bizzare decisions during a season but he used to learn from his mistakes quickly and not repeat them. Nowadays he's like a moth at a hot bulb and it is frustrating the £#%&! out of everyone. Idiots like us can see what he is doing wrong and yet seemingly no one at the club is able say 'owt. Truly baffling.

Honestly now, when was the last time we had a great run playing great, fluid football? You're in denial about Ferguson, Bors (and that's not a dig). Yesterdays performance which he was so angry with - it was him that put out a team we all knew wasn't good enough. He won't learn. |

Welbeck is not great in that role but at least he has plenty of energy, good pace, aggression to his game. Fergie might have been pissed off with Giggs at half time but how could he be surprised? |
