    This is no exaturation we need a new squad of cms fletcher might never play again with is illness sadly. anderson is injury prone and not consistence enough for us. scholes and giggs are getting on we cant relly on 37 and 38 year olds week in week out no matter how good they are. Despite carrick being one of are best players this season (surprisingly) he is still not good enough for us and never will be its not his fault he is just a solid midfielder and thats his level. That leaves us with pogba and cleverly who both promise great things in the future but nobody can say for sure if they will make it as top players (in my opinion they will be top class). So please saf listen to the fans this summer and buy new midfielders like tiote martinez rodwell gonso goetze modric gaitan hazard munian eriksen and stop telling us there is no value in the market we need midfielders and we need them now.
    We need 2 Midfielders, A Defensive Midfielder or a CM/Play-maker, and a Winger or an Offensive/Attacking Midfielder

    I would sell at end of season Carrick, Berbatov, Macheda (maybe) and Park. Then Loan Petrucci, Keane and Tunniliffe to low premier leugue teams, and for signings i would go for Martinez (to replace scholes), Hazard (to replace giggs) and with the money from the sales I would go for Eriksen. GK De Gea, Lindegarrd CB Vidic, Ferdinand, Evans, Jones RB Smalling Rafael LB Evra Fabio Fryers LW Young Valencia CM Martinez, Anderson, Cleverley, Pogba, Eriksen RW Valencia Nani ST Rooney Chicharito Welbeck.

    We need a CM and maybe an advanced attacker like Muniain

    I agree Martinez is a must for us and either Hazard Muniain etc would be great aswell.

    We should sign Martinez and Hazard in the summer then we will be sorted.I think these 2 players will really make the difference to our already have good squad by adding these 2 players our squad will be even better in my opinion agree?

    'Despite carrick being one of are best players this season (surprisingly) he is still not good enough for us and never will be its not his fault he is just a solid midfielder and thats his level.'

    Yes Carrich has been one our best players this season but its not really a suprise.

    He clearly is good enough, his stats, apperances and honours prove that.

    'Not his fault he is just a solid midfielder and thats his level' :D . . . .his level being that he's played in the midfield for the best team in England for last 5 years and started 3 European cup finals. Think your selling him a bit short.

    Ruud van the man`s main fan:
    joon heng:
    Passes the ball back Carrick- Good Vision only when given time and space.
    This statement is absolute drivel. He was the only player who matched up Bilbao in terms of technique and ability to keep possesion. A shame, the others were not on the same wavelength. Top class midfielder, just needs a consistent partner of Modric's ability.
    shut up. matched up?!?!?!? what effing match are you watching!! he plays safe and where does that get us..We need guts and determination in that middle... I would rather have Javi Martinez than him...we STILL lost and you can still find positives... you irritate me.. HE isnt on the same wavelength as others. ya its true remove Park and Giggs from that equation and the injuries i can see why he is there.. but our BEST combo was Clev and Anderson.. simple..and Stats can prove that..You cannot tell me Carrick sits in the middle of the park.. no he expects someone else to do it.. your problem is thinking we dont see his skills. i do.. but for what we need and how we play he isnt cutting it... only in a 3 man mid can i see him, ..if he is so good he should step up and do what Scholes does!! the fact is an old Scholes has more presence than Carrick.. we have changed everyone else around but not him..i saw better movement from Pogba than him... i bet you if Carrick stopped playing you'd stop supporting United.. Modric has Parker.. and Parker is a better player that Carrick..Carrick would leave Modric to do it all on his own..let him stay there.. like i said a 3 MAN MID. then we can talk
    You are clueless. I've supported United since 98 where Arsenal won the double.Did you not see how Carrick performed in 2 men midfield since November? You are just a sad anti-Carrick lad. I pity you, thank God SAF runs the club.

    I don't think you even watch Carrick, when you watch him and then understand the role he plays then we can talk as you say.

    Young- Cant beat his man. Passes the ball back Carrick- Good Vision only when given time and space. Unforced errors under pressure Fletcher- Industrious. ? about health Park- Gives the ball away under pressure. Cant beat his man Valencia- Quick only against mediocre defences. Nani- Beats his man but poor decision making agaisnt superior opponents Cleverly- Too little game time to say anything noteworthy Pogba- see cleverly Scholes+ Giggs- Past prime And you wonder why we need new midfielders? Anderson- Will he ever be fit?
    OH MY GOD! This is a candidate for the biggest piece of sh1t I've ever read.

    Re: we need 4 new centre midfielders

    I don't think we need 4. I'd be very happy with 2 CM's in or coming to their prime. With Carrick, Cleverley and Pogba in rotation. With his injury problems, I'm starting to wonder if Ando will ever reach a good enough level, and as the OP says, we can't rely on Scholes and Giggs forever, no matter how good they are. Fletch would be a 6th CM which I think is enough, and assuming he can get some good health.
