With the likes of Giggs, Nani and Anderson all fighting for a place in the team, I think we could be looking at a lot of squad rotation. Hopefully not too much though. In some ways, knowing our best eleven every game last season helped to provide some consistency.
Edit: Tiberian, Scholes is still far too good to be pushed out the team. I don't think Hargreaves should be starting right away. We can do without him for games against inferior Premiership sides. We'll need him in the big games though. |

IF the Tevez deal does go through no problem then we'll have plenty of options next season.
But as somebody already said, I hope we don't chop & change too much. We still need continuity. Tevez & Rooney up front for me with any kind of combination you like behind/alongside them. Ronaldo, Scholesy, Giggs, Nani, Anderson, Carrick, Hargreaves etc.. Pretty impressive to say the least. |

Saha is still the closest to a main striker we have in the squad, a player who can stretch defences, hold up the ball and create space for the likes of Rooney, Giggs, Tevez, Ronaldo to play in. We are going to have to start moving away form Scholes anyway. he had an excellent season last year, but in the big games against teams who could keep the ball and make him run he was something of a defensive liability, that is only going to become more apparent. Carrick and Hargreaves would provide a more solid base. Our best performance of last season came against Roma with a similar system. Fletcher and Carrick providing a solid base for the attacking 3 of Ronaldo, Giggs and Rooney to play around the pivot of Smith. Scholes id still an excellent player, but we have to start looking beyond him and we now have the players to do so. |

Without wishing to bring doom to the thread, but I think Ronaldo could be 'due' an injury next season. He has had basically 5 seasons with no major injuries and has played a lot of football in that period. So the competition will be very grateful, IF it does happen (which I hope it doesn't).
Alos expect Scholes and Giggs to play against the top 4 teams and 'big' games next season due to their experience. If anything I think it will be Hargreaves/Carrick who would make way. But what a great change it makes from 2 years ago when the back up was Smith, Fletcher, O'Shea, Giggs, Richardson for the midfield spots. |

Play Tevez, Ronaldo and Rooney, looks great on paper but none of the 3 would be comfortable playing as the main striker, and whomever did would quite likely become isolated. They still need a Saha/Smith type to play around to get the best out of them IMO. Scholes will stay play a lot of games, but this coming season it is time for Carrick to step up and take on a lot of playmaking responsibility that Scholes normally has. |

Can not see us winning the CL with Scholes or Giggs as integral parts to our team, age has caught up with them at that level. |
