Ferguson ***** me off every time he opens his mouth. Scholes has been past it for the last four years, even he knew it, that's part of the reason he retired from international football. He had a brief good spell this season, but not enough to warrant him being in the first team. There is no replacement for him in line either. So that'll be two central midfielders we need to get. Keane and Scholes have been our anchors in midfield for the last 10 years. And Ferguson is too busy putting faith in players like O'Shea and Fletcher.
You are 100% right about not cutting it in Europe anymore, I'd put that down to a combination of tactics and poor choices for the first team. Ferguson has also let the team age like with Giggs, Scholes, Keane, G.Neville.
I actually wish the Glazers would step in and tell him to go back to Scotland and bring Fletcher with him along with his brother (our Chief Scout) and his son (the main Agent for our youth team players). Too much has let slip in the last few years and it's come to a head this season firstly with Keane, then Ruud and the other members of staff who are unsettled at how easily our team doctor was forced out because he made Ferguson look bad.
