Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
What the hell is wrong with us? We have such a great squad of players in every position. We have 2 great keepers, at least 6 great defenders, tons of midfielders (most of which are world class), and 4 world class strikers. People would be wondering, what could go wrong? I’ll tell you what’s wrong. It’s all Fergie’s fault. He maybe good at helping players reach their potential but when picking his first 11, he’s completely lost it. I know most people get a lot of stick for criticizing SAF simply because he brought so much success therefore he must always be right. Well he’s wrong. I just don’t understand his why he picks the players that he does when he has great replacements on the bench?
First of all, why were we playing 3 centre mids with one winger? And when we brought Ronaldo on, instead of playing 2 wingers, why did we take off Giggs? That just made the problem worse cuz Ronaldo can’t cross well with his left foot. Another thing that bugs me so much is that why do we play guys like Kleberson and Djemba-Djemba (No one seems to like them) when Phil Neville and Fletcher, who are much better players, are not even making the bench? Why tinker with players that don’t bring anything to the team when you have players who have proven themselves?
I remember the years when guys like Beckham, Scholes and Butt first made the full team at 18. Looking at the crop of players we have now, I don’t think we’ll see something like that again. (Except Rooney, Ronaldo and the rest of the reserves)
