I think ManUtd just has what it takes now to rule Europe and the EPL for years to come…remember we have youth in the team.

I was not happy totally of getting berbertov because of his age and attitude and where they are going to fit him in. but you know what f** it he is here and while arsenal can barely name two players that are going to make you shiver in your boots along with Liverpool, while chelsea have very good players united can boost the most flair exotic and destructive front line. Remember when real madrid had figo zidane ronaldo and raul along with a very good midfield that did not score alot of goals but stayed deep that’s how united are built on galacticos players up front like ronaldo rooney tevez and berbertov. but think about this people fergie wants rooney in his best position, and you know the way tevez playes his dynamic movement which is better then rooneys and ronaldo ‘s powerful rampaghing runs from the wings. I suspect tevez will play the way benitez uses kuyt cutting in from the wing that’s my hunch about how fergie tends to lineup these four players and berbertov will be the target man.

look at this comparisment between real madrid in 02/03 and united 08/09
real madrid man utd
makelele guti hargreaves anderson
figo raul zidane ronaldo rooney tevez
ronaldo berbertov
you could say set man utd’s front line like this is very unbalanced will tevez and rooney like going out wide dont think so, but the complaints about uniteds midfield dont get forward there is a reason rooney goes deep tevez goes deep and the midfield getting forward may get in the way of rooney and tevez thats why.

if spurs fans are on here commenting if it’s true spurs never give united permission to speak to berbertov I would like top apologise for the behaviour of not just united but the way berbertov as gone about. it as a united fan I hate the way united have gone about it especially after ronaldo. Now you united fans I want all united fans to never boo ronaldo ever sing his name out loud because we have benefited getting a player in the same way as ronaldo tried to do over the summer. what realy makes me wonder I have said since 2005 we should have signed fernando torres his age his style would have been perfect for the likes of ronaldo rooney and nani.

£30m??????/ F*cking rip-off, he’s not worth that. Anyway good signing, but i just always get this feeling, he’s gonna be a disappointment after all the hype.

Kevin…yeah man, its just, I hate saying this but In my honest opinion, on current form, Tevez is playing much better than Rooney right now, and I would rather have Tevez in the hole behind Berba every day of the week. This is all dependent on Berba coming in and playing as well as we are all hoping him to, but IF (and i know its a big if) Berba comes in and plays at a very high level, I don’t see a spot in the starting 11 for Wayne if we play a 4-4-2. And the 4-4-2 appears to be a favorite of SAF’s while the rotating fluid 4-3-3 we used last year was more of Carlos’s style I think.

I just hope it kicks Wayne in the ass to get himself fit. I know people will hate me for saying this but he just looks heavy right now, and his pace and quickness and explosiveness isn’t there.

“If we where going to spend 30m+ we could have done it a month ago”

I’m sure it would not have been that high the bitters hadn’t interfered.

Glad they fucked up Chelski’s Robinho transfer though.

Drew Vader- I like the idea of a diamond upfront, but I would swap Rooney and Tevez. I agree completely with the idea that we need to gel with all those egos but Tevez and Rooney are selfless players, Berba will be out to prove his worth, and Ronaldo will do what it takes to be successful, as long as it doesn’t change his role to much. Manucho will be able to plug up front for Berba and all of the pieces can rotate around the striker. Rooney is such a hard worker and is capable of playing multiple roles. Scholes, Nani, and Anderson can be pluged into the positions as well. Good thinking but time will tell what Fergie thinks about trying a new system but the idea of rotation was used a lot last year and the players should be able to gel into so Fergie will surely consider this type of formation.
