Re: silly season transfer %@#$&!s thread
Our midfield might need tweaking but its not as bad as people make out. We got 50 or so goals from midfield last season, and thats with Hargreaves missing for all of it and Anderson for huge portions of it. And with Giggs and Scholes supposedly fading

Everton away in February though was endemic of the weaknesses we have there. Early goal by Berbs, then we gradually get worse as the game goes on, the midfield bullied and hustled by a workmanlike Everton team. Relative to the other top sides in Europe, I honestly couldn't give our central midfield more than 3 out of 5. Not enough goals, not enough assists, no pace, a lack of ability in tracking midfield runners from the other team (other than Fletcher), and a lack of ability to physically impose themseleves on the opposition (again other than Fletcher, and Scholes' ill-timed tackles). I hope Hargreaves can play at least 30 games for us next season, AND we buy an attacking midfielder, otherwise I honestly think we struggle, relative to the past 3 seasons. And before someone jumps in shouting 'Cleverly', he is just a kid with no Premier League experience whatsoever. |

Crouch scored more than berbatov. Pavlyuchenko only scored 2 goals less than berbatov. Berbatov only scored 2 more goals than van persie, who was in a wheelchair for most of the season. Berbatov only scored 4 more goals than N'gog. None of the above cost £30m. |

Re: silly season transfer %@#$&!s thread
Total
33 - Rooney 13 - Own Goal 12 - Berbatov 9 - Owen 7 - Giggs 7 - Scholes 6 - Valencia 5 - Fletcher 5 - Gibson 5 - Nani 4 - Carrick 4 - Park 2 - Welbeck 1 - Anderson 1 - Diouf 1 - Macheda 1 - O'Shea 1 - Rafael 1 - Vidic ________ Only one stand out individual performance there. No midfielder getting into double figures. Poor return from defence as well, although our set pieces are abysmal. |

Too much pressure on Rooney, Nani and Valencia to do everything at the moment. If 2 of those were to get injured for an extended period, we would be screwed. |

Not sure it is realistic to expect Rooney to have 26 goals by April again. Also, 86 goals last season, but 5 defeats where we failed to scored. All those extra goals against Wigan, Hull etc mean shit at the end of the day, other than keeping us entertained. |

http://andersred.blogspot.com/2010/0...l-sources.html Then that @#%&! Gill has the nerve to sit there and go on about how well "the business" is doing. When I saw his grinning face on SSN this morning I almost punched the tv. This summer will be just as bad as the last, I think that much is pretty obvious. No doubt when the transfer window does eventually close, there'll be some clown on here claiming it's the 'United way' with all the usual revisionist history about how we've never bought anyone decent in our history. |

I'm just bitter about the Glazers and the sooner people realise that "we will get 20 games out of Giggs this year" is a pitiful cover up and insult to the thousands that have made this club great the better. I'm proud of what Fergie has done for us and I don't share the same bitterness of others, I truly believe that he is doing what he can to get us through this nonsense, but I don't think it's right and I don't think that the Glazers getting one more penny helps anyone. We can keep covering the cracks and we can keep chucking the gimps a few million quid each year. We need to wake up and get rid, it's not big or clever just the right thing to do. |
