Fabregas future should be sorted by end of week now barca have a random coach

Zaha of course, he's looking great at the moment. I'd also like to get Valencia a shot as well again, just to see if he's able to be the same Valencia of 2011/12 and not the one of 2012/13. If not then sell him in the January transfer window. If Nani's staying then I want to see if he's also back to his old self.

I'd keep Valencia just because of how absolutely devastating he was the year before last, and he has a good attitude and will be on lowish wages. I'd keep Nani as well as he can be fantastic and can play on both flanks, he wasn't really given a consistent run of games last season which always makes it harder. I'd get rid of Young if I could pick one to go, but with his wages I doubt we'd be able to find a buyer.

Zaha looks like he has everything he needs to be an incredible player.

Ok. I can kind of agree with you on Young. At his best, he's obviously a good player. But generally, he's very predictable and average. I don't know whether this is due to a lack of games or not. Perhaps, he should be sold.

I know Valencia did well when he first came to MU. But a lot of that was down to teams not knowing how to handle him at the time and the presence of Rooney up front to get on the end of his crosses.

However, teams now know that the best way to beat Valencia is to try and get him onto his left foot, rather than allowing him to use to right foot to bomb down the touchline and cross it in. Additionally, RVP is not the traditional English striker who cherishes crosses from the wings. He likes the ball played to his feet (although he can score from headers anyway). I don't think Valencia matches RVP and Kagawa's type of football.

So I'm not sure whether Valencia will be much use in future to MU. But I guess he should be given another chance to prove himself next season.

Honestly except for maybe Anderson I think now everyone should be kept with the issues we are having with getting players in, let Moyes have a season with the players to decide who fits his aims and see what form they can generate under a different manager, then in January or the end of the season they can be sold on if Moyes deems them surplus to requirements.

I think Valencia tried to add more to his game last season and it didn't work, instead of getting the ball and just belting it down the touchline he took a touch, stopped and looked for a short pass or tried to cut in. You could see him trying to use his left foot more and trying to loft crosses in instead of just drill them hard and low. If he just sticks to what he's good at then he can still be a very effective player, and even though RVP might not favour his type of play, he will still create a load of chances and all he or someone else has to do it get a toe on it and its a goal. RVP will get the ball played to his feet the way he prefers it from Kags, Nani/Zaha/whoever we play on the other wing, Carrick etc.

Honestly except for maybe Anderson I think now everyone should be kept with the issues we are having with getting players in

Hernandez was actually our second highest goalscorer last season, he outscored Rooney in all competitions. 18 goals in 36 sporadic appearances, I'm not sure you could find another striker in the world who maintains that kind of hit rate off such a random assortment of games. For me, while he scores like that off the bench he should be in the squad, he's got a bit of a thing against Chelsea too which is always funny.

Have we not got any central Mids coming throigh

Hopefully by Friday fabregas is sorted one way or another

Didn't you say that about Thiago? I think predicting transfer moves is not a forte of your's.

Hopefully by Friday fabregas is sorted one way or another
