Bors is right Scholes and Giggs gives us a different dimension and we either have to find similar players or change the way we play.
There is enormous strength in this squad (today no Fletcher, Nani or Vidic) but at the highest level we lack a little something. We need a wide left player and someone in the middle who can do something that Carrick et al can't do. One or two really good signings is all we need. |

Scholes has been a revelation since his return, which has coincided with Carrick playing a lot better. We need to buy a replacement for Scholes this summer, keep the prince on for one more year while the new signing (big wes) beds in
£#%&! Giggs, Park and Anderson off. free up the midfield from the dross that currently steals a wage. as for the OP, who are you again? |

I will be thrilled if we win the PL this year Does anyone seriously think this United team wouldn't be handed their arses by various vintage United teams in the fergie era, how many of the current batch at this juncture of their career (i.e. 56 year old scholesy, not 26 year old scholesy) would be in an all time ferie match day squad DDG - maybe vying for the bench Vidic - if fit Valencia - genuine RW option but ahead of Kanchelskis and DB23 Rooney - probably that said, i do think we have got the basis of a £#%&!ing good team, as a very good, very young squad matures if we get the right investment in the right areas at the right time. |

Would love to see us sign a Munain/Goetze/Kagawa/Eriksen type who can produce a bit of creative magic in the final third where we sometimes look a little lost for ideas.
I think both Cleverley and Pogba (if he stays ) will both develop into quality central midfield players, but I'm not sure either of them have that creative spark to do something special in the final third, which is something that we will really need in Europe. Even more frustrating when you think that we had this exact type of player coming through the youth system, but he was more interested in brap brapping on Twitter than building a great career at his hometown club. :shakehead: |

Reckon if he stays fit and avoids injury he will be a very good/excellent player. |

This team strength is in its defence. It has been since 2008 season. But once ronaldo and tevez were gone, it became even more important. We could see it in 2009 season and last season.
But all the while our attacking prowess has kept on decreasing. We seem to have accumulated a whole host of one dimesional attacking players thereby making this team rigid. Nani is the only one that I think can operated in a 4-4-2, 4-3-3, 4-3-1-2 formations. Everyone else struggles and it doesn't help that our most in form and effective player can only play in one formation and one position. Valencia despite being so effective restrict's this team quite a bit. Add to that hernandez, young, berbatov, welbeck and even rooney are not so flexible you can see why this team struggles in an attacking sense. Early season form was down 2 things, opposition teams were not so quite good. But our front 6 was nani, valencia, cleverley, anderson, rooney and welbeck. Nani, cleverly and anderson all suited for one touch football, give and go. As soon as carrick has come back into the game its a more measured approach and usually it's always pass it around for some time and then give it to the wings approach and then cross it aimlessly into the box. Not a surprise that we have struggled in europe where you don't get the ball back easily once you have lost it. |
