I'm aware we need a more dynamic striker to lead the line but that's mainly because the current trio at Utd all play too deep - some are far better suited to that role than others too so one may be expendable I dunno. There's no £#%&!ing way I'd be comfortable with Tevez playing as a number 9 since his lack of pace is a real handicap. If you've got yards on a player as slow as Corluka for example and are still being beaten to a good pass then it's not ideal. As a striker playing off a more mobile centre forward he's fine. So yes, a pacey forward in the Summer please but I feel that'll be a replacement for Tevez more than anything else. I hope not. |

young kid with plenty of potential. one of the best in europe? arf. a midfielder able to do consistently what giggs has been doing for us is exactly what we need. rooney and tevez can both play further up the pitch, as rooney in particular has demonstrated this season as his partnership with berbatov has begun to blossom. diego would be a quality addition to our squad imo obligatory bunch of youtube shit: edit - one more |

Rooney has been pushed up as more of a number 9 in the time leading up to his injury. I honestly think he could be superb up there if we can get him to be more positionally disciplined. |

also you say rooney and tevez can play further forward meaning you would put them out of position slightly to accommodate a attacking midfielder who would be taking up similar positions to berbatov could you 'bless' me with your formation with diego in the team. im intrigues by this. |

TBF I think Wellbeck fills the criteria you're looking for and he will figure more and more. |

I'd happily take a goal scoring midfielder, a player that arrives late, a young Paul Scholes - or someone like Lampard that bangs in 20 year in, year out. I don't give a flying £#%&! if he's a tubby sky-pointing @#%&!opotomus, he scores goals & can pass. The rest of the team can make us look pretty, the midfield needs to take some of the pressure off the forwards. Nani has 6 this season, he reaches double figures & we're on our way to finding some kind of solution to the issue of depending on Ronaldo's haul. |

edit re rooney up top, here's fergie's opinion http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/f...ss-874801.html as i've said many times before, i think rooney's best position is as a genuine striker, where the dynamism and physicality of his game can be most effective. |

if we bring in an attacking midfielder this would affect ronaldo and have him hugging the touchline. simple really. |
