Anderson and Carrick have typically played well together in the past. They might be a bit light in the midfield in the games against other title challengers and bigger teams in Europe., but for the majority of the league play they'll easily outplay the opposition.
Antonio Valencia has requested to use the number 25, his old number, according to MUTV. He said the pressure is immense
I was just about to ask about his shirt number. Could this mean the previous player that had that number is on his way back from Spain I wonder?
Michael Owen? Seriously though, why would you give up a 'first 11' shirt? Who's got the #9 shirt then?
I hear David Beckham is free... It does seem weird though that we've left two first team shirts vacant. Hopefully it means there's still hope for some big signings. From Valencia i think it's pretty worrying that he doesn't want that honor, confidence problems perhaps? He should really be able to deal with the pressure by now.
4-3-3 was nice to see, more men in the midfield. I hope for one that our defense doesn't take until February to find their form.
Heard Valencia's number change had to do with superstition. He played extremely well while wearing number 25, and extremely poor with number 7. I'm thinking Michael Owen cursed the number 7 jersey.
Manchester United are close to finalising a long term deal to keep 18 year old Adnan Januzaj at Old Trafford. #MUFC
Buttnerâs agent Aleksandar Bursac says his client has been given permission to talk to Besiktas about a move away. âI am currently negotiating with Besiktas,â Bursac told reporters. âDuring the match against Sevilla last weekend, interest was expressed. âHe put in a good performance. Benfica were also interested, but that news is already history. They have enough left-backs in their squad.' Shame that, he was excellent on his debut against Wigan last season, i still think he can improve on his defensive work apart from that, he's a good player, if he leaves, i can see us going for Baines again
