I hope he isn't relying on Scholes and Giggs again to pull us out of the shit in terms of central midfield. It'll work against smaller teams but you'll get *bleep*ed in the ass against the best. Injuries kept Anderson and Cleverley from making any real impact too.

I've read that Anderson is shedding that Brazilian partying lifestyle by having a stable relationship with his girlfriend and the car crash in Portugal which has kind of put him on the right track somewhat.

Whatever happened to the Anderson that ran at defences like Paul Ince in 2007/08?

He was excellent at the start of the season before he played the second half against City in midfield on his own (Fletcher went to right-back because Evans got sent-off). Then his confidence went to shit and got injured as usual.

Rodriguez seems like another winger/attacking midfielder. Him and Kagawa would be a great improvement on Giggs/Park. I don't think that another midfielder is as necessary if Kagawa is creating the chances in front of them. Just as long as Giggs is used as a last 15 minute sub and Park doesn't start games.



Could do with a bit of full-back cover, so I'd be happy enough with Clyne.

I've read that hes had a shit attitude since his stock went up.

I'd say he would? That's where he's been when Tottenham were playing at their best, with Parker behind VDV and Lennon and Bale on wings. We still will need someone a bit more defensively minded next to him that we don't exactly have in Clev, Ando and Carrick if we're doing that though, surely?

Fair enough, but seen a lot of United fans saying it wouldn't work, our 2 seems to be a lot deeper because our front guys usually stay forward, just hope he wouldn't be too far back to make something happen further up the pitch.

Lol

Wouldn't mind losing Nani, why he is always around our set pieces confuses me, he takes some dreadful corners. If we can get around £20 million for him I would be delighted.

There are many more consistent players than Nani, but I don't think we'd spend the money we get for Nani on a winger. That would go towards getting Modric possibly?

Nani looks likely to join Juventus which would be a massive shame but if we can sign a consistent winger it would be well worth it.
Our worst position is right back if Rafael keeps going down and left back if evra goes we are stuffed
