I fear new players will only arrive in the summer, it would however be nice to have some existing players available for selection some time soon. Rooney, RVP, Nani, Jones, Young, Anderson, Fellaine and Rio all injured. I know one of them is past it, two of them are as frustrating as **** amd one of them has yet to do anything at all (maybe first season nerves or he is just ****) but that is a lot of first team squad/players to be missing at the same time and limits selection and tactics. It was nice to see Jessie Lingard on the bench today, i hope he can have at least half the impact Januzaj has had when/if he gets his chance.
There is a big decision now to be made , i think most people were prepared for a drop in standareds when SAF retired and accepted we would struggle for a season or two. The decision i am talking about is this, do we now go with what we accepted would happen and take this oppertunity to give some of our youth team a chance to prove themselves over the next season and a half or do we spit our collective dummies because we are not challenging for the title and demand that millions be spent now and in the summer to put us back on top (thus leaving the young players to find other clubs where they will get games).
