Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
I love it. No one even knows what position this Bebe guy plays. He's that mysterious. I just hope he's not a striker, cause we're waaaay overloaded with some potentially very good players. I mean:
Rooney - Here for at least the next 5/6 seasons and definite starter if fit
Berbatov - Definitely getting another chance this year, 2nd choice
Owen - As far as I can tell sticking around on his low cost scheme, probably 3rd choice
Chicarito - Looking devilishly good, likely to move on up this scale or become super sub
Macheda - Fergie has said he's too good to loan out, so I presume he'll be here.
That's 5 first team strikers, none of whom can play wide or in other positions (perhaps Roon on the left, but unlikely given last year). Then we also have a few genuinely good reserves/youth players:
Welbeck - About to go on loan to Sunderland - what if he has a stormer? Young, english, Mancunian...
Diouf - Already scored once on loan with Blackburn, looks raw but has a respectable scoring record. Also only 22.
Petrucci - People that watch the youth/reserves teams have been absolutely creaming over this fella, if his injuries subside he's apparently Totti mach 2
Josh King - Already scoring goals on his championship loan, has played for the first XI and is just 17
Will Keane - Apparently a scarily good finisher, again, only 17.
Bebe - Yeah, who?
I mean that is a ridiculous number of players competing for at most two births in an XI. I don't get it. In Fergie I trust and all that, but unless this Bebe turns out as a midfielder, I'm not going to be impressed.
