What puzzles me is that Fergie was on record complaining about Martin Edwards lack of understanding after the Treble, as Edwards couldn't grasp why Fergie wanted more players. You strengthen when you're at the top, that's how you progress and dominate. You don't sit back and say 'well we've just won the double'.

Campbell's not up to it yet not by a long way
I'm starting to feel very concerned about the lack of transfer activity when Berbatov was a done deal ![]() we are very light up front even allowing for Tevez return we need at least one striker and a wide player....I heard today that Ronaldo won't in fact be back until November ![]() given that our next two league games after Monday are the Dippers and Chelski (who will have already played an extra game) we could be in deep shit before September is out we also need a No2 who knows wtf he's doing but apart fvrom that it's all gravy ![]() |

Anderson will certainly get more (improving on nothing isn't hard) and I'd expect Nani to up his tally, but with Giggs getting very few these days and Park the same, I do think the lack of goals from midfield is a problem that will probably continue. |

In 99, we definitely should have gone all out in the summer. A world class CB to play alongside Stam (Thuram), a left back and a quality goalkeeper were all urgently needed. This time around, apart from the striker department, it's difficult to see where we can make any substantial improvement? It’s the lack of squad players that’s a worry for me. I think the squad depth (up front and defensively) could be an issue this season. If the twins and Evans step up, we should be ok at the back. But upfront, we're already struggling without Ronaldo. Any sort of long term injury to Tevez or Rooney and it's very difficult to see where the goals will come from. |

well that's my whole point, forget the defence it's quality, but would like to see Foster play more midfield...we lack a high scoring midfielder, Scholesy can't do that 10-15 goals a season any more we relied on the rest will come nowhere near double figures... the fact Ronaldo now looks like being out until November is scary, and we defo need a striker, maybe even two as you can't count that @#%&! Saha and Campbell will go on loan IF we get Berbatov |

More willingness to get beyond the strikers would be helpful, the only one of our natural top 4 midfielders who did that last season was Hargreaves against Roma, Scholes is no longer that type, Anderson is as of now clueless in the final third and Carrick is a deep lying player as well. |

If I've got £#%&! all money I don't wander round Sainburys for an hour loading my trolley with shit, asking the staff to check out back for stuff that isn't on the shelf, then leave it all lying in the middle of an aisle. I've got better things to do. Like post on here. |

If Tottenham agree to let him go on tick, plus win bonuses, then we can afford him. Will Tottenham crack? If they get Ashavin, then no doubt they will and he will join us on our terms. If not, then it'll be just Manucho who is coming in after getting his work permit this afternoon. |
