I agree that it is highly possible that all these names are
merely smoke screens.
But which department do ManU really need to strengthen??
Goalie: Generally dependent 1st choice in van der saar, who has
been consistent throughout his United career, except for a few
'slip ups' at the CL final on the slippery pitch in moscow. 2nd
choice kusiak dependent when called upon. Verdict: No need to
buy
Defence: Central pair Ferdinand-Vidic strong and unmovable
(brown and o'shea capable covers), on right side brown will give
neville a good run of his money, no natural cover on the left side
for evra except o'shea. Verdict: Left back as cover
Midfield: Amazing feat for SAF to give reasonably
regular playing time to all four central midfielders scholes,
hargreaves, carrick and andersen during 07/08 season. Plus Fletcher
also available, no need to buy central mid. Also have 5
capable wingers (waiting on the wings.. duh): ronaldo, giggs,
nani, park, and fletcher. Verdict: No need to buy
Forward: Rooney and Tevez, both more suited in a supporting
forward role. Saha is leaving, so they better get a central forward
to replace him. Huntelaar might be a good choice, but doesn't mean
it works everytime when 'going dutch'....
Manager: Three more good years to come, according to the man
himself...
