We do need a overhall of the team. But Ando & Vida? GTFO. Nani deserves better, but the rest i really don't care 1 bit.
Nani going out on loan is a good shout! Couldn't hurt his value anymore than he/we have - lets see how he does playing regularly....
T'wouldn't be a bad path, in my most honest opinion. It's not like our current transfer strategy has been that much of a success, after Evra/Vidic we've had no bargains at all, and that was 4 years ago.
The story is abit dramatic and unrealistic but im sensing changes will be made soon. I only think a certain few players are safe from the axe. There's too many stories coming out about bust-ups and conflicts etc and too many players playing with no real desire.
Wouldn't be surprised if Tosic went he can't get a game for whatever reason, Nani wouldn't shock me either but I would like to see him go on loan first maybe a constant place in a side would do something for him. Anderson, Berbatov and Vidic no chance unless of course Vidic wanted to leave. Anderson is only 21 and is getting games so I don't see why we would sell him and I have noticed his shooting is getting better. SAF loves Berbatov and whatever your personal opinion on him, he is a wonderfully gifted player and the 5 or so goals he's missing in his 1st season isn't actually a big deal when he's offering more than just goals.
I doubt this will happen, i cant see Fergie axing Berbatov when he paid 31 mill for him, but we have seen it before... We are in need of a re-vamp, these are the players i would sell in the summer : Foster, Nani, Tosic, Owen, Park, Vidic (If rumours are true he wants out to R.M) We should finally spend some of that 80m we recieved for Ronaldo on some of the following players. : Silva, Ribery, Hangelaand, Benzema, M.Diarra, Di Maria.. This is just my opinion, i doubt we will have an 80m clearout in the summer, but if we dont win anything this year i feel its only essential that we bolster our squad.
Owen? Ribery wouldnt come to us. and M. Diarra? we have Fletcher and Hargreaves and Carrick and Anderson and Gibson. why would we need another CM, let alone a DM at that?
When we signed Berbatov, my sister (big Spurs fan) phoned me to laugh down the phone. Sadly, I'm beginning to think she's right. He's one of the laziest players I've seen in a long time. Quality, yes, but hardly a team player. Strangely though, I think he'd do really well at RM, and I'd gladly swap him (and some cash) for Benzema. I would get rid of Foster, who just isn't up to the mark. I'd also get rid of Brown. Again, against Birmingham on Saturday, he showed he wasn't up to it. His positional sense is so poor, you have to wonder whether the opposition are paying him. Park's time might be up as well. He is a great squad player, but so are Fletcher and Gibson, and with players like Pogba and Eikrem coming through the ranks, maybe it's time to let him go. Certainly, he isn't the creative force we are missing in midfield. Much as I really want Owen to do well, he doesn't seem destined to get game time, so what's the point in keeping him on the bench (and then bringing on Diouf when we are trying to win the game against Birmingham?). I can't see SAF going for wholesale changes of first team players though
I think Nani and Tosic will go and wouldn't be surprised if Foster went. I, like Fergie, thought at the start of the season he'd have a good chance of being England number 1 by the end of the season but he has made far too many mistakes and the fact that Amos is now on the bench as back up to Kuszczak speaks volumes. I'm still hoping the rumours about Vidic aren't true. We need to hold onto him. I can't see us selling Berbatov. We'd make a huge loss on him.
We may have Anderson, Carrick, and Gibson.. But realistically i doubt Gibson is ready to step up to the plate atm, Anderson looks promising but is not in great form (as he has said himself).. Carrick needs a good run of games to really get going, by going on his performances this season hes not doing very well. And why wouldnt Ribery come to us? If he can go to man city or chelsea, he can come to us. Its just the question of whether he prefers us over other clubs, and whether Sir Alex is sure he is worth the sum of money they are asking for him.. On Diarra, we need to strenghen the midfield - we havent been looking solid as lately, and Diarra would give us strength in midfield... As for Owen, i doubt Fergie would sell him, BUT he came 2 United hoping that this would be his chance and he would make Englands Squad for the World Cup. Atm, he must be pretty annoyed that he has hardly played since he scored a hattrick against Wolfsburg - and as brilliant as he is, he isnt getting any younger.. By the end of the season if we dont win anything im sure plenty of players will be in the firing line - and a whole squad revamp... im sure we will bring in another world - class striker in - Where does that leave Owen? I know none of what ive said may not happen... But these are my opinions..
berbatov and nani can go, vidic wants to go? but anderson is coming along nicely why is he seen as a flop? i cant remmember him having a genuinly bad game.
