The other strikers will have their chances. It's a long season anyway. Kagawa's signing doesn't mean we're moving away from 4-4-2 which will still be our default formation for most of the season. Kagawa is a player who will allow us options to play 4-3-3 and its variant more effectively now that we have a player whose expertise lies in the final 3rd. Kagawa will be deployed as the man in the hole when we play a 4-3-3 variant in games against the big teams as well as some tricky away matches. But for the rest of the games, we will be playing 4-4-2 or 4-4-1-1 and that means 2 strikers so the likes of Welbeck and Chicharito will have plenty of opportunity to partner Rooney in attack. I strongly believe that Kagawa will spend a lot of time on the wing next season when he get games and will only be played in his preferred central attacking role in the big games.

man utd fan forever:

welbeck, hernandez and mabey macheda, what about them. Will they get the chance of play? Also do u think ferguson or other machester united coaches will actually look at our threads and think what we say?

Haha, good stuff mate, I'm sure United coaching staff are avid readers of this forum.

With Kagawa coming in as MF, it merely means Rooney should be deployed as striker, not MF. If we play 442 then there is still a place for a 2nd striker. Should we play 4231, either kagawa can play on the left at the expense of Young, or Rooney plays as sole striker. There should be enough games among all attacking players, but does signal that we don't need an experienced 4th choice striker (to replace Owen and Berbatov)

it is impossible for welbeck to be ahead of rooney with his finishing at that level. i also think rooney's mercurial displays have been the result of too much responsibility

if welbeck was on the bench it would mean kagawa and rooney are better players( WHICH THEY ARE )

Yes Rooney is better than Welbeck , so what ? Welbeck will get enough games next season & will score plenty more. As I said earlier Rooney , Chicharito & Welbeck will rotate.

hound60:

I also said isnt good enough YET,

Yep , you said it. But you also said "he should start against smaller teams". Which means you're underestimating him.

hound60:

welbecks not WORLD CLASS at the MOMENT and would not get in any other top teams starting line up.

Was CR7 world class when we signed him ? was Becks world class when he wad first promoted ? no one is world class by born.

LOL,once again i did say not good enough YET,CR7&BECKS were alot better than welbeck at his age,against the bigger teams united will start with their best 11 so if LIKE STATED IN THE THREAD THATS KAGAWA&ROONEY,welbeck will be on the bench and start against weaker teams.NOW JOG ON TAZ YOUR BORING ME ITS A FORUM ITS ABOUT OPINIONS IF WHAT I SAY UPSETS YOU GET A TISSUE WIPE YOUR TEARS AND GO TO BED, GOOD NIGHT,

\ Its no use of debating with a statue. I'm wasting my time then.

Without the likes of Ole, Teddy, Nicky Butt and later Fletcher, Park, O'Shea, Wes, we won't have won all that we did. They'll all play a part and they're great options to have.

I agree mate im just sticking up for myself against these kids who cant disagree like adults,Im never the first one to start the arguements, me and you dont always agree on things but at least you speak to me in the right way.Look at my post was it really that BAD.

"Welbeck is not good enough to be in the starting lineup yet. he should start against smaller teams".

What does this mean ? you're sounding like a total glory hunting fool. You dont want to give the players any chances. This was Welbeck's first season at OT. He started with a bang but because of injuries he suffered a dip in form. If SAF doesn't give him chances , how will he improve ? despite being injured for 3-4 months , he managed to score 12 goals & assisted a few. Isn't that enough ?

READ THE THREAD, i was giving my opinion on what would happen if kagawa&rooney started up front

Facepalm. Forget about the thread. Why dont you read your own post again ? you were saying Welbeck isn't good enough etc etc. I replied to what you said.

Yes, if welbeck was on the bench it would mean kagawa and rooney are better players( WHICH THEY ARE )I also said isnt good enough YET, get real taz welbecks not WORLD CLASS at the MOMENT and would not get in any other top teams starting line up.

Welbeck not good enough to be in the starting 11 YET,should be on the bench and play against smaller teams, rooney&kagawa are much better players,if the bench is good enough for sheringham&ole gunnar solskjaer then its good enough for welbeck and any other striker.
