Squad players isn't supposed to play every game. They're supposed to provide cover when injuries, tiredness and suspension comes. And guess what? Considering the factors that I already mentioned in my previous post, that'll happen a lot in a season. Hence we will need someone like Fletcher to come in.
If Fletcher starts regularly for us, then either we have an injury crisis, or he magically become good enough to dispose the players in front of him.
Either way, I trusted Fergie whatever his decision will be.
Did I said I like him because he works hard and gives his all?
Your Smith comparison hardly hold because Fletcher is already a better midfielder than Smith as a striker.
Bullshit.
Is Wes Brown one of the very best right back in Europe? Is Ji Sung Park is one of the very best winger in Europe?
You just don't get this whole squad player thing do you?
You said he looked better because he played with Scholes, Giggs, etc.
I refuted this opinion because he, in fact, has performed well when he played with the likes of Steven Pearson and Christian Dailly. |
Once again, I couldn't give a crap what he does for Scotland
Actually, yes I think Wes Brown is a top quality right back, that's why he's been able to play as first choice all season in this United team and be so successful, our defence has been immensely strong. Ji Sung Park has become a regular first choice towards the end of the season, and is a fine player indeed, who puts in the yards as well as having the quality to beat his man and play good football. Perhaps he isn't one of the best in the world, but he's a far better player than Fletcher is. And that's the point, yes you have squad players, but at this club, to compete for the top trophies, you need the best squad players. And that means top quality players pushing for starts. Which is why Fergie went out and bought the likes of Nani, Anderson and Tevez has summer. I don't think Fletcher is of that standard, and as such should be lowest down that pecking order. And he is, hence his mere 11 starts this season. I'd be very suprised if he makes the final 18 for the Champions League final personally
And I don't just go with what ever Fergie decides as gospel. He's human and makes mistakes too. It's right to be constructively critical about our own team and players, and not settle for being second best. That's how you stay at the top
