Drastic things need to be done. This cant be allowed to happen. Major changes need to be made.
Im just wondering what they think should be done.
Nothing will change.
The transfer forum should be taken away.
A bit of ethnic clensing wouldnt go astray either, ie ban all scousers, rentboys and arses too-

Well thing is i dont think anyone has a clue what will or can happen that will make us competitive again for league, i mean it was Chelsea without Terry, Cech, Robben and Duff! Also they are only going to get better in summer! Not looking good from where im sitting and im normally preety optimistic
No, thats not the same as people saying that major changes need to be made.Hawkeye said:Martin tyler said it

does it really matter who said it! Its true anyways!
cull the deadwood and we'll easily have between 20-30 million pounds. We now will have 12 mill or so from the Stam sale finally...can't believe the board doesn't have 5-10 mill earmarked even with their protestations of bankruptcy.Dubai_Devil said:
that leaves us with anywhere between 37-52 million pounds...enough to fix what ails us....if that still isn't enough, borrow 30 million pounds and pay it off over time...it's a pittance paid of fover several years.
67-82 million pound kitty...to turn the tide...how it is to be spent and who it is spent on I can only guess.
A new Gk is a must. The 3 we have at the moment are not good enough. Out of the 3 I'd keep Tim, and get rid of Carroll and Ricardo. Bring in a decent goalkeeper and a sign another on a free transfer as backup.
Not sure, but I think we need a completely new Central Midfield partnership. Obviously we shouldn't sell either Keane or Scholes, rather reduce the amount of times they play in a season and gradually build the team around the 2 new CMs. Imo, Scholes has had more poor games these last 2 seasons than good ones, but he's still one of the best in the world 'on his day'.
feck knows who those players will be. Especially if we've got no money.

A new keeper. Thing is, very good ones are like gold dust.
Our midfield needs freshening up. It's too old, and gets the run around far too much thesedays.
And we could also do with a CB.

You should try Heinze at CB
I've been saying this for ages....and I'm always right

You are living in a dream world Flash. Lets look at the deadwood and how much they would fetch; JOS - £3m, Kleb - £3m, Bellion - £1m, Saha - £4m, Miller - £2m. Thats about £15m, and thats if we sell them all which I doubt we will. The Stam money is only £7.3m, and I think its already been put into the Rooney fee. Then there is reports of us spending about £5m on Mikel Obi. We are not going to borrow money to buy players, the board of directors just wont allow it. That gives us about £15-£20m to spend. We need a keeper and a good one, then there will not be much left to do anything with. Maybe get some cheap cover for the wings.FLASHWOK said:
Agreed.Davo said:
And Maybe try Spector at leftback.
But that's not going to happen.
and Spector to left backDavo said:
Silvstre to milan
I have said this also.......Davo said:
He'd be a natutal IMO.
Then that leaves us with Silvestre at LB, who is quite dodgy, and him and Rio have worked quite well as a partnership, but I do want to see it given a try.Davo said:
who is going to fetch that much???FLASHWOK said:
i thought we had most of that already..FLASHWOK said:
hope u're not serious.. i doubt the board will let the club go into debt and further doubt that we have a war chest of anything above 10-15mil pounds tops.FLASHWOK said:
i still think we have enough quality in our side. the deadwood does need to be let out, but instead of binge buying, i'd like to see a lot more youngsters being given a chance..
GK.
The coaching. Can do more with finishing, not only on the volley type, practice on freekicks and corner kicks. We should also improve on our set pieces. Zero threat from there.

Well, Spector looks to be a good prospect for the future, but I think if Heinze moves to CD, then SAF should look for a veteran LB who can attack, pass, and defend. The usual suspects like Del Horno, Maxwell, Chivu (though he might be better used in CD) will be mentioned. Maybe bring Rob Carlos in for a couple years while Spector matures (assuming Real go after Del Horno).Number7 said:
The midfield has to be sorted out either by bringing in young players from the reserves or a quality midfielder should be signed to play alongside keano and scholes. Fletcher seems to be developing into a good midfilder and hopefully will be able to operate in central midfield in the future but fletcher is not a ball winner. We need a tough tackling ball winner who can sit in front of the defence and stop the oppositions flow of play. Keano does this role at the moment but he tends to get caught out of position and ends up making clumsy tackles. This doesn't mean that keano should be dropped but he should be played alongside a young energetic defensive midfielder who can read the game well.
Defensive midfielder and a winger.
or in a longer run - nobody and wait for the youth crop.
A new manager could also be a hit.

Yes, but he's part of the SackFergieSellGiggs crowd, so logic and cogent replies don't necessarily come with the territory.Dubai_Devil said:
So by the sounds of this thread, the changes are we need a new keeper or we need a new midfielder. Hardly major changes then.
Money is reseved for Goalie already apparently
if we can generate 8 million from selling deadwood it can go on a midfield not sure how good though
Well done on missing out on Van Bommel fergie

If we were to sign a veteran LB I doubt we'd ever see Spector make it into the first team.MrMarcello said:
We're seeing less and less of our youth/reseve as it is.
We were never in a position to miss out on him.Hawkeye said:Well done on missing out on Van Bommel fergie
If he's good enough, he'll eventually push the incumbent out. It has happened with other United youth (Scholes, Butt, Beckham, Gazza, etc.).Number7 said:
Goalkeeper
DM

Winger - who can cross
Central defender
But realistically we will get 3 if lucky and they wont be world class they will be "fixer uppers"!

Get a new left back in on the cheap, or just make a choice between Neville, Silvestre and Fortune and stick with it for a bit...
Midfield should be number 1 priority. A top class centre midfielder, and a winger.
Yes. Thats very nice. Who could we get for each of these positions and how much would they cost?Reds_always said:
as if that would be a guarantee.thewelshconjurer said:
imo not much will happen regarding transfers, fergie will wait and hope that some young players will be ready in 1-2 years.
Big and drastic changes are needed alright
- First off, get Rio a haircut, he looks like a retarded version of a retard
- Paint Brown purple, orange is just so not him.
- Saha needs some new boots
- Hide the bloody sleeping pills before a game, Silvestre seems to be addicted now
- Tell Gazza to try and go a season without being a spaz on no more or less than 1 occasion
Also, can't we just roll Ronaldo out onto the pitch before the start of a game? saves him the trouble of all that time he spends waiting for an excuse to fall over

OK people im talking about major changes, not buy a new keeper or a new midfielder.
