Hi guys. As you can see it's Himzo the "sensible" Man Utd poster yet again making another outstanding article. I'm going to be discussing a few things here. Firstly, do we need to be making dramatic changes to our squad in the summer? Rooney's face says it all, he's absolutely shocked playing along side the likes of Bebe, Obertan and Gibson. To be playing around those players, they'd make anyone look awful. From my point of view, our lucky wins will come to an end very soon, I'm starting to get a feeling based on our players not giving it their all, I know that might sound a bit harsh but after the performance I saw today I certainly am having doubts. Why hasn't SAF made any decent signings? Both Schooles and Giggs are surely going to retire some time soon and we cannot rely on them for ever. What else can we imply? Please refrain from contributing unnecessary comments. Thank you.
To early to tell if Lindegaard will be the ideal replacement for Van De Saar but the goalkeeping situation will need to have been sorted. Defence and attack are fine, just need a midfielder or 2.
A bit of shameless self promotion there Hizmo. I think it's a bit early to start going on about dramatic changes to our playing squad based on a game when we started a team that had probably never all played together before. The squad we have now is no worse than in 2003 when we had the likes of Kleberson, Djemba-Djemba and Bellion. There's no need to go all Football Manager on us - dramatic changes are not what we need. Imo the core of the team is fine. We have a solid defence, with good prospects for the future in Smalling and Fabio. Our wings are well covered with Nani and Valencia for penetration and Park for when we need to counter opponents with attacking full backs. And up front we are doing fine with Berbatov and Chicharito in good form, and Rooney showing signs of getting back to a good level. All we need is a good central midfielder who can keep possession and dictate the tempo (a replacement for Scholes in other words) another option for the wings to replace Giggsy, and a top class keeper to replace VDS. I think the only reason we haven't bought those already is that SAF never likes to spend big in January and risk disrupting the balance of the team.
Why is everyone getting stressed, AS FOR THE ROONEY COMMENT HE LOOKS DREADFUL. Berbatov, Nani, Valencia are head and shoulder better than him. Hernandez to. As for young players we have many promising ones which are NOT Oberton or Bebe or Gibson. Welbeck, Cleverly, Pogba, Morrison, Fabio, Rafeal, Smalling, Hernandez IMHO are the talented ones who need more chances which they will. Obertan out and same goes to Gibson in the summer. Bebe will hang around for sentimental reasons and needs a unlikely miracle.
Only gibson should be given a chance out of those three the other two are so ****ing dire they show us up against a southern non league outfit.Roll on the summer although we"d probably get more for the pram than we"d get for bebe.
I dunno, Bebe could still turn out ok - this season the staff seem to be more focused on training him up and working on the basics, rather than actually trying to get him up to playing level. Seems like he has talent, but is seriously lacking in footballing education given that his career to date is having spent one season at a lower league Portuguese club. Obertan on the other hand has to go. His game seems to consist of nothing but kick and run, and not always in the same direction. That's when he's not falling over anyway...
I thought Bebe did ok, obertan was embarassing. Gibson did well. I don't expect our your midfielder's to be Xavi or Iniesta. I've seen some very poor performances from Gibson and some fairly good one's.
Yeah, but Gibson's fairly good performances always seem to come against relatively weak opposition who give our midfield time and space. He struggles far too much when the midfield is more competitive.
