Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [21st - 25th November 2014]

The worst thing about Utd last year was they didnt' take the chance to replace half the team. They needed 3-4 first team players gone last season and 2-3 back ups, and the same this year and they'd be in a much better place. They've done one half of what needs doing but at probably too high a cost. They needed a few 5-10mil youngsters or just solid squad players to go along the high priced flair players.

Regardless of how good Blind, Di Maria, Shaw, Rojo end up being, if the other half of the team and most of the back up is **** it really doesn't matter if those 4 are good or crap, they are 1/3rd of the team, you need a full team to be good.

What is even worse, this is a team that Arsenal have built over a stupid amount of time, everyone a personal pick of Wenger, and despite Utd looking dire, we look almost as rubbish.


I would agree based on our team on the pitch. A fully fit squad I would say we're two experienced, consistent and not injury prone defenders from a Good squad

Two central mids, one winger and at least one more non injury prone CB... I think Rojo might be good but the difference between a partnership and two CB's who play with a different player every week is night and day.

But you need more reliable back up players, those 5-10million guys who you didn't get the chance to add this season but should have gotten a couple both summers. To replace valencia, young and add at least one covering fullback, really need a back up winger as well.

I'd say at least 3 first team players and 4-5 rotation/back up players.
 
Arsenal are going to score its just a matter of when.

Utd need to take the (1/2) opportunities that they are spurning.

Arsenal seemingly had 1/2 dozen good chances, fortunately Utd managed to string a few good passes together in the last 10 minutes.

Utd at the moment will be lucky to come away with a point

Lucky Arsenal aren't ahead, need a new plan in the second half.

yep - it starts with "H"
