Following the Rolex argument - who in the team has hunger and who doesn't.

Personally, I think they all have hunger, but some might think that it's going to be easier than it is and perform accordingly.
 
Last season was definately a question of hunger, I doubt that it will be this season though. Seeing Arsenal lifting that trophey should have been enough, certainly was for me!
 
Agreed, they all have hunger and want to win things (who doesn't?) but some of the squad last year might have been guilty of arrogance/complacency/believing their own press. Into this category would fall.......

David 'we are going to win every game this year' Beckham.
Ryan 'went missing in the big games' Giggs.
Juan 'I'm a god in my own country' Veron.
Micky 'I'm too good to play a full back, I should be a centre half' Silvestre.
Fabien 'I could play left side of midfield' Barthez.

All very big players and very important to United. If their attitude is not spot on the the likes of Keano has every right to question their hunger/determination. Really this hunger thing is the natural result of three years of success. The lads are only human and were bound to start thinking that all they had to do to win games was turn up. They got a rude awakening last year and IMO the attitude in the West Brom game was great.

With a bit of luck we are in for a great fighting season!
