Now I don't think it was Man Uniteds midfield that was the reason for their titles,I think it was their defence and their attack.As their midfield was exposed on a number of occasions against decent opposition.And was the reason why Man United won 5 out of 19 away games last season.Barcelona,Liverpool,Chelsea and Arsenal exposed Man Uniteds midfield and proved how actually poor it is.
Exposed by Barcelona maybe but most midfields are . Exposed by Liverpool - you beat us once in 3 games ? Exposed by Chelsea - They beat us once in 4 games ? Exposed by Arsenal - again they beat us once. You simply don't beat these teams with a poor midfield. Again indvidually they may not be that great but as a team unit playing they way United want to play, they will do for me. I would like to see a new midfielder come in and I believe one will. It's funny how you are more concerned about United 'poor' midfield than most United fans, you constantly go to great lengths to tell us about it almost daily. i suppose it gives you something to hold on to after all, we keep being told we are a team in decline ?
Yes, but you can't exactly say we were on fair terms the two times you beat us . Bloody Hodgson, and Kenny had only just come in.
And that's our fault how ? It's not about if it was fair or not. It's whether as KPR put it you 'proved exactly how poor' our midfield was ? In one game maybe, but then is it fair for me to kudge your midfield against say Blackpool ?
How many of those teams in the league did you beat AWAY from home...this is something that determines the strength of a teams midfield. Out of those three teams Man United lost to all three away from home.And you only beat Liverpool in the Cup due to a non penalty given in the first minute.Coward Webb gave it when Agger looked at Berbawank.
Sorry I didn't realise the strength of a midfield can only be determined on away games whilst achievements like being part of a team that won the league and reached the CL final should be ignored ??
