A guy who has had one good season at a crap club, big fish small pond syndrome, and you'd prefer him over Fletch?? You short of something in between your ears??? And as for Red Steve- you muppet. Fletch, Wesley, O'Shea- they're essential to the squad, O'shea has played every position for United when called upon, that timeless display in goal against Spurs being most noteworthy, him nutmegging Figo, THAT goal he scored against Arsenal a few seasons ago!! Fletch is a big game player and isn't a moaner and leaves nothing on the bench when he comes on, his passing is a bit wayward at times as is his crossing but then again he picks out some peaches. As for Wesley- just check out the season he just had. Some of our Manc faithful are a bit blind to our less glamorous players and talk out of their arses! azza-you’d rather have palacios??

one of them needs to step up and become a goal scoring threat from open play, both carrick and hargreaves have a great shot on them

For supporters you're not showing much support, but rather you're gullibility of the press. I can completely appreciate that the author of this article has a right to state his opinion, just as I can appreciate that any idiot has the right to state a completely dumbfounded and poorly backed up opinion.

]]> Comment on Would You Take Messi In Ronaldo’s Place? by Red77 http://therepublikofmancunia.com/would-you-take-messi-in-ronaldos-place/#comment-8778 Red77 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 22:26:12 +0000 http://therepublikofmancunia.com/would-you-take-messi-in-ronaldos-place/#comment-8778 RFD: learn how to read. I never said Aguero was a winger. I said he was someone who could replace Ronaldo in the team. i listed him as a attacker / winger which is what Ronaldo has become. He's not a traditional winger anymore...no player who plays exclusively on the wing would score 40 goals a season. Also, you clearly don't understand the game if you think we NEED a 40 goal player to win. Ronaldo got the goals and took the load off our strikers and that's great, but there's no telling if he will ever be able to repeat that feat (chances are he won't). What united need is a strong core of players who can take the load of scoring and assisting in goals. If each of our 3/4 attacking players score 10+ goals and our strikers consistently get over 25 goals a season we can easily defend all our titles. Also remember that Ronaldo took all our penalties and almost 90% of our freekicks. if he does leave, that duty will be shared by others and we have enough quality to make up the goals he scored. Can he ever be replaced ? i'm not sure, probably not. But that's not because there aren't other players who can't score the goals he does. it's basically because he has a flair and skill that's hard to find. But the team will find a balance with the players that are brought in to replace him and we have enough quality in all areas that we'll still be the hardest team in England (and one of the toughest teams in Europe) to beat. There will be life after Ronaldo, just like there was life after Cantona, Keane, Best, etc... RFD: learn how to read. I never said Aguero was a winger.

Of course, i could be wrong and he could suffer from second season syndrome, especially if he is sad about his best mate heading out the door, in addition to maybe the only coach who could speak his language heading out the door. i have all the faith in the world that Andersonsonson will go from strength to strength next year and if given the opportunity, could be an outstanding box to box CM for us and once he adds some goals he will be more like a Fabregas for us than scholes.
