We have no Giggs,Butt,Keane or Ruud and we are stopped playing football by a very average side.
Why is it that we are playing so narrow these days obviously no Giggs today means no natural left sided midfielder.
It is obvious to me that our squad is lacking badly in depth.No quality cover for Giggs, Beckham,or Ruud and when both Butt and Keane are out we lose our ball winner and get exposed.Veron obviously does not cut it unless given time and the oposition obviously know this so give him none.This is happening all to often at home teams that we normally brush aside are causing us problems.
January needs to come soon IMO and the sooner Ryan, Roy,Nicky and Ruud are fit the better.
We need to play Rio and John at the back all the time and aquire 3 new players in January.Left sided right sided and forward.

who do you think will provide SAF with money to get 3 players?

even average players now will cost us atleast 5m each. so that's ATLEAST 15m. i don't see it happening.

just enjoy football while you can my friend.. enjoy seeing us getting 1 point before we get none at all with the current tactics. <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" />

Sell some of the passengers would be a start
 
There were some bright points today though:

Forlan looked sharper than he has in weeks and he scored.

Veron gave the ball away less and won quite a few. He also made some pretty good passes. Still not up to scratch, but hey, an improvement is an improvement.

Blanc, no matter what any shithead anywhere says, is still pretty damn good.

Rio's back. In style.

Barthez, despite seemingly insane at times, MUST know what he's doing. Or he would have let in 40 goals by now. Except against Chelsea, we've not conceded more than one goal per match. The problem is getting them.

Shut it you gloomy little turd. You obviously dont enjoy watching United so go watch the Arse.
 
of coz i do enjoy watching United.

i was relieved we got a point yesterday. with the way things are going i feel we'll be lucky to keep getting a point every game.

it's called unconditional love for a club, because i'd still support them even for all the wrong tactics and strategy. that's not ABU man.. you gotta see the difference.
 
sure i make drastic comments about their chosen tactics and strategy. but it's only because IMO we can be better with the current squad.. and you all know it too.. it's just either you choose to see the wrong things or you choose to keep a blind eye and not face up to the facts.

so i'm an ABU when i see things for the way they are? get real will ya... i'm not defying earth's gravity here by pointing out the wrong things. i'm actually only saying the obvious.

we had a great game yesterday. We came from behind to snatch a draw. By all means i think we were the underdogs ahead of the game. Villa were destined to get their first goal at OT.

Every team now knows they can get something from us, something from OT and we keep letting them.. so yesterday was a good fight and i would enjoy seeing us coming from behind to get a draw atleast until things start to shape up... it's great to see that fighting spirit in the team again.

what is wrong with this anyone explain please???
