O'Shea and Brown sold to Sunderland... loyal servants but time to move on.. thanks for the contribution and good luck in the future
Fergie's rebuilding again..Be warned
Sad news. Wasn't always an O'shea fan but he was a loyal servant and in truth a good utility player. Same goes for "Orange". Scoring against 'pool at the Kop end, nutmegging Figo; all good memories. Gibson should be in this deal as well. Not so many tears for that one though...
Man U seem to be making some boss moves this off season, both in and out.
So far so good, but I think activity may be at an end. The press is speculating about Sneijder and Nasri, but I don't think Fergie was ever going for these guys. Maybe Nasri (who I don't fancy), but I always thought Sneijder was a non-starter. I think/hope the young players (Morrison, Cleverly, Welbeck, Tunicliffe) will get a chance.
Cant see that... we need a creative CM
Hargo, Scholes, Gibbo out... Cleverley and now Giggs as a CM in .. missing 1
De Gea/Lindergaard/Amos
Rafael/Fabio
Rio/Smalling
Vida/Jones
Evra/Evans
Nani/Valencia
Carrick/Fletcher/Ando
Giggs/Cleverley
Young/Park
Rooney/Owen
Hernadez/Berba/ Welbeck
Out of those 5 CM's.. 2 are defensive, Anderson provides energy but not a good passer or goalscorer, Giggs is 37 and we cant depend on him everygame.. Cleverley will have his 1st full season at United
A special CM is missing.. one that can be the heartbeat and link play with the wingers and strikers
Modric is the ideal choice and Nasri would be a good back up...Sneijder is 27 and very expensive and I have doubt about him playing CM in a 4-4-2.. He generally plays behind the striker but we are a 4-4-2 team due to Fergie's attack on the wings style so Modric would be the right man for the job as he plays CM in a 4-2-3-1 / 4-4-2 for Spurs
