What would you like your team to look like next season?

So essentially we need a new winger and I think a new CB and LB would help the team. Yeah we just got Kolarov, but he's been poor defensively.

------------------- Reina ----------------------
-- Johnson* -- Agger ---- Cahill --- Coentrao --
----------- Lucas -------- Meireles ------------
-- Hazard -------- Gerrard ------- Suarez ------
------------------- Caroll ---------------------


* Or Kelly.

While some might say that Hazard is unrealistic, we're in for him, so we'll see how that pans out. No Europe for a season means nothing - Suarez was willing to join, so it doesn't really make much difference.

I'd be thrilled with that side, would probably be an expensive summer, but we could certainly raise funds with the sale of some of the deadwood.

Seen him play this year?

Affordable if we get rid of the deadwood in the team. Big long list of strikers who id take but I think llorente is the one id want the most.

Can't stand Whittaker, he's hopeless & Weir better have retired.
Hopefully we get Weiss and Bartley on loan again at least.

Then again we may have a bit more to spend if this takeover materialises.

club already had a mass overhaul all we need now is a couple signings namely a marquee like kewell

New CB's and LB I'm not so sure, possibly get Angel Rangel from Swansea on a free and then move Lichaj to LB. DM maybe Livermore although he hasn't been great so far. CM could be Pratley on a free. Hopefully we spend some money too though.

I'm leaving Scholes out of that because he doesn't know if he'll retire, obviously need a new keeper and I want a new creative central midfielder to play next to Fletcher, but can't see it happening when Carrick has signed a new deal.

If Carrick can start playing how he's played recently I'd be alright, but if he turns into cunt form again.. I wont want him in the team.

Saying this though, at United we don't just have a team.. players like Park will play a massive part, Giggs, Berbatov, Smalling, Scholes (if he's still here).

Fergie will pick the best team for the opponents he's playing so I'm never quite sure with our "starting 11"

Casillas
Ramos-Pepe-Carvalho-Marcelo
Alonso-Martínez
Cristiano-Özil-Di María
Benzema/Higuaín

Kind of mis leading this thread, what you want it to be or what you think it'll become?

Any way-

My Team


Back to reality; Probable team for next season

The team that I would like to see next season

The team that we will end up seeing next season

It isn't misleading. It is what you want it to become while being realistic. E.G Liverpool signing any player that has CL football next season = unrealistic.

We have great depth, which is an advantage. I would like to see a class CM come in, some one who isn't afraid on a battle and can control a game. Maybe a natural LM, as Bebe and Obertan are wank and we only have Nani, Park and Valencia who can play on the wings.

Reminds me of the old Essien.

You have less faith in your team than I do .
He's going through a bad patch, you make out that his career's over.

Who is Caroll?

We need a completely new defence and with Kilkenny and Johnson without a club in the summer I would like to buy or get Bannan on loan and get Livermoore on loan or someone else.

It's unlikely though.

I'm surprised Liverpool fans want to replace Kuyt after he has started banging them in.

Don't think we will be able to buy Davies from Sochaux, so I think he will return to France in January. Shame really. Branko Boskovic is unlikely to be retained either, though I think he should be. Hard to tell then who we would go out and get in the international market, but our team will likely look something like this:


Everyone seems to be buying a Colombian these days...wish we could find one ourselves!

Dutch league is only marginally better than SPL, not really fair.

I meant from top leagues like England, Spain, Italy, Germany and France

And where is your evidence to suggest that players wouldn't want to join us? We're still a big club despite a possible absence from Europe. After all, they'll be joining for more than one season.

He is getting on a bit, he is still useful.

He is boss against top teams, but the 'weaker' teams he struggles.

Is Findley meant to play some at the end of this season?

It was touch and go that he would play some part tonight but he won't feature, so I'd expect to see him next Friday against Leicester

Arsene we trust

Interesting. Hopefully he doesn't disappoint too much, haha.

don't see why you wouldn't like Corluka or Lennon next season they are both solid. And I prefer Rossi to Llorente. And Hulk would be a great signing but I don't see it.
