Freak
Born a freak always a freak.
Butt, Kagawa, Andy Cole.
Oh but he doesn't press the ball against the big 6 like Jesse. You have to put him on the bench with Pogba for the big would games so says the CafBerba would be so ideal for us right now as a No.10. Great target man, great link up player and scores a decent amount of goals. We were so stacked in attack in 2009.

Evans
Kagawa
Brown left-back??Veron, Nani, Brown.
DDG
AWB - Lindelof - Maguire - Brown
Veron
McTominay Pogba
Nani Martial Rashford
That would absolutely transform our team.
I don't think that's true at all. I remember times during the 2012-13 season when we are all grateful for Carrick's seemingly running the midfield on his own.Reading the United section of the caf these days is pretty much a mix of ire and reminiscence. Within that reminiscence, some names get drawn out of the hat and remembered far more fondly than they were during their actual playing career at the club. Nothing wrong with that, but it is an interesting phenomenon and perhaps a sign of how a once genuinely world class side have fallen off post-Fergie.
Players such as Nani and Carrick have had their profiles boosted a lot retrospectively, for example. Again, nowt wrong with it, but interesting, nevertheless.
Anyway, as the title says, which three players whom you didn't particularly rate 'then' would you welcome into the current squad like long lost prodigal sons?
You've been on here since 2010, so you must have seen the countless threads about Carrick, not all positive and they got heated with Mozza defending his guy to the death to the point he got a tagline out of it.I don't think that's true at all.

Yeah he had his ups and downs, particularly after the Champions League Final in 2009, but I think towards the end of his time, most were pretty aware of how special he was. I'd certainly love to have him back now!You've been on here since 2010, so you must have seen the countless threads about Carrick, not all positive and they got heated with Mozza defending his guy to the death to the point he got a tagline out of it.
Carrick has been a polemicising figure, but I don't think he was ever a player who was hated, rather one that people felt could be upgraded upon.
Retrospectively, he's been elevated to a level of respect and appreciation he didn't have whilst active, well certainly not in the blanket fashion he has now.
None of this makes any sense.I didn't rate them back then so why would I have them back now? None of them have improved and I'm not keen on lowering the bar even further. Every signing should be top three in the squad based on quality.
My top 3:
Pogba
Martial
AWB
I.e. Any signing we make should be better than those players in their respective positions.
What's hard to understand? I'll break it down for you:None of this makes any sense.
He got plenty of appreciation for that 1st and 3rd season (missed most of the 2nd with a broken leg)Valencia the winger with his deadly crosses. Did not receive too much appreciation.
This and your previous reply make so little sense that it's almost impossible to argue!What's hard to understand? I'll break it down for you:
- I'd take no one
- We should only sign players that are better than our best
Kagawa never fit into our system, and will definitely NOT in Ole system. He is deem too slowKagawa would be excellent in our #10 position. He would be everything we wanted.
Nani on the right side.
Pre injury Saha would be awesome too.
Wesley Brown at left-back? Interesting.Veron, Nani, Brown.

Yes.So apparently we're so shit now that we're allowed to bring back three players that we didn't rate, or overly rate previously, and we really that bad?
