    The thing about Young is he also brings a massive set peice threat which we have lacked for a while (since Ronaldo left)



    Can't believe i am defending Carrick.. but he was not fully fit

    Cleverly looks good.. tbh the whole team is very good and once Rafeal came on fro Evra we had an average age of 22 on the field. The team will be winning the league but will not be beating barca in Europe imo.. even Sniedjer wouldn't change that. So you might aswell give Anderson/Cleverly the time to develop rather then splashing 35-40m on a 27 year old

    The main worry is De Gea.. the shot yesterday he should have been saving.. what is worrying though joe.. is that last season in La Liga he let in the most goals outside the box (11). So it doesn't appear to be a one off..

    His positioning for both was poor, the defence should have done better but you can't be letting in that 2nd goal on a regular basis
    I'd rather push the youngsters through than go ahead and spend ridiculous money on Sneijder. Anderson has everything to prove this season and now Scholes is gone he will get more game time, he's a bit of a fan favourite too so it will be good to see him develop. Clev just looks like a great young player with so much confidence already, his passing was crisp and he reads the game well, can't wait to see more of him.

    Though i still disagree about Carrick, even when fully fit last season you can see he's lost his pace and ability to get forward and contribute to the attack. I know people will come in and say he's a defensive midfielder but when have United ever played with an out and out defensive midfielder before Carrick? We have box to box players like Keane and Fletcher but we have never needed someone to just sit in front of the defence and pass sideways. Carrick before this season just gone wasn't even a defensive midfielder in my eyes, he was a completely different player more like a deeper lying playmaker. I don't know how he got so slow and reckless with his passing. He scored 0 goals last season in all competitions, he always manages to score usually but he's just stopped going forward completely. The main thing he had going for him was his passing ability but i don't see him doing anything nowadays apart from passing sideways to a player more capable of passing it on to the forwards.

    You could see with Anderson and Cleverly our attack is much more effective, our midfield is more dynamic and we really didn't miss having a DMF. We scored three goals and conceded none without one. He's already 30 years old and looking like a donkey so i say drop him or sell him to a mid table Premier League side.

    As for De Gea, i think he's too young. He made some decent stops and will get better with time but right now i'm not sure how reliable he's going to be, though we're always going to compare him to how solid VDS was so it's kind of unfair really. He doesn't even speak English very well yet.

        O yeah, keep in mind De Gea doesn't speak much English, he basically just started to learn some so it's hard to communicate with the defenders, hand gestures can only go so far.

        The team helps him update his twitter in english.

          Its going to be even harder on him since he's playing in England, few mistakes and the papers are going to shred him to bits.

          Neuer who is a top keeper in the world f'ed up yesterday, came all the way out to punch the ball and cost Bayern the game. Bayern SHOULD of won but couldn't convert and a keeper mistake cost them the 3 pts.

          His reaction for the 2nd goal was really ****.
          Good post and i agree 100%. Even Casillas was an error prone keeper at the start of his career. Real Madrid even dropped him at one point.

            Do you not get tired of hearing his bullshit?

            "Judge my transfers on 1st Sep"
            "Judge my team in May"
            "I only look for super, super quality"
            "We are in a waiting period"

            etc...

            Same shit every year.


            What happened to DK btw?

              You and the rest of the supporters need to realise we have to look in the bargain basement for players. Mediocre players go for 20+ mil nowadays and we don't have that kind of money. But even i will ask questions if we don't sign a solid centre back in this transfer window.

                Hmm another young inexperienced player, does Wenger not learn? Where's the leadership gonna come from?

                  Cleverly + Anderson in the center of midfield should be the new starting partnership, they were both bossing it yesterday. Young, Jones and Smalling were all pretty flawless. Welbeck was great if he can consistently perform like that then get rid of Berba and have him as back up to Chicharito.

                  Seemed like when all the young players came on we started playing better more flowing football, they started using the one touch intricate stuff and it worked a treat.

                  De Gea i am still not sold on, 20 year old Goalkeeper in the Premier League is risky he should have saved Dzeko's shot it wasn't even in the corner. He's young and will learn but hopefully he won't make too many mistakes in his debut season.

                  Also, get rid of Carrick. It's no surprise that we actually got things done when he went off for a 21 year old Cleverly. He's so slow and contributes nothing to the attack, or defence for that matter.

                  I liked what i saw yesterday we dominated the game and played some wonderful football at times, the second goal was just unbelievable.
                  You'd rather get rid of Berba and keep Owen?

                    If Van Persie wasn't always hurt he should def be the captain and the leader of the squad, the guy is a hero.

                    <3333

                    Wenger is always on the same bs every year.

                    Late May-Alright guys, we got 60M to spend and we are going to spend this summer.

                    July-signs 3 kids for like 2 or 3m each. Ok guys quit critizing me, judge me September when I'm done shopping, I under your frustration.

                    September-Alright guys, I think we have a fantastic young squad and i see great potential and this year we can fight and win the title.

                    fast foward to May and repeat.

                    O yea and around March and April EVERYONE gets hurt. Most on a week or few days before a big match, Why? idk.

                      United has a lot of strikers on the fight team Rooney, Chicharito, Berbatov, Owen, Macheda, Welbeck, and that big black guy Diof or something like that.

                      I wonder who's going to go on loan out of the last 3 or if Sir Alex will keep them all.

                      Pretty sure he's going to wanna keep Welbeck.
