I'd look at this: Nani + 7m for Hamsik Berbatov + £5 for Dzeko Van Der Vaart - Loan with an option for 10m Rodwell £14 or £10 + Gibbo Sell Wellbeck, Anderson, Foster, Vidic, Tosic, Neville* and Scholes* Great servants but just not up to it anymore sadly. Sounds a bit football mangerish but oh well, here's what the team would look like. VDS Rafael Rio Evans Evra Valencia Fletcher Van Der Vaart Hamsik Rooney Dzeko |

Personally, I see little point in selling players in January and doubt many (if any) of the types of players we require will be available. I'd like a major clear out in the summer though, with a couple of quality signings brought in. Doubt it will happen though. Quote:

Re: If we could sell a few players in January and spend the cash
If Fergie actually played Wellbeck as a centre forward I think he might actually do a good job. You know, use his pace to stretch the defence? I know, how quaint. His finishing is pretty good too.
My main criticism yesterday and irritation is Fergie's insistance on chucking experienced players and reserves into these kind of bingo ball starting elevens. I'd argue familiarity is vital. We tend to see a slow sluggish performance and the 11 on the pitch yesterday looked like a bunch of strangers. Not unusual. Oh, and it does help if the experienced players can still cut it. In Gary's case the mind is willing but the legs have gone. There was a very good article on Sunday (I think) re squad rotation. Someone close to Mourinho was discussing changes from one game to the next. It wasn't wholesale changes, or 4/5/6 from one game to the next, but one change one match, one change the next. I appreciate that's probably not 100% accurate but if he intends to rotate - and he think he has to - it doesn't need to be to the extent that he does. Irrespective of a fully fit defence the midfield and forwards would change every single game. |

I find it funny how he says that "Utd do things the hard way". As if it's fate or something. Rubbish. It's deterministic and happens because Fergie pulls up just a little when he thinks he's things in the bag. I also think he's struggling to follow what motivates some of these Utd youngsters and that's why he goes back to the previous generation. I don't envy him when you've a kid on £10k a week and are trying to get that extra 10% out of him. Gibson is infuriating in this regard, all sorts of ability but would it kill him to look like he's bursting a gut to get to a player? What's he saving that energy for? |

Re: If we could sell a few players in January and spend the cash
I would get rid of fergie and get someone in who can actually coach the good players we've got.
the idea that we should get rid of nani and get in a lightweight like modric is laughable. fletch and modric? ooh, I think I shit myself, mummy. play our best team. play fit players. get them to pass to each other. oh.. and get rid of tosic, obertan, owen, neville, scholes, foster.... really, we should cash in on fletch as he's the only player who bring in more than he's worth. we should have bought diaby a year before arsenal did. we'll still win the league, mind. chelsea are shit. |
