United need to buy 2 midfielders. A dm and a more mobile creative midfielder. They need to buy a new lb and a new cb possibly to help reinforce Evans, Smalling, and Jones. That's about it.

I guess but I still think they'll be up there again next season. It's going to be harder for us to stay in the top four (Presuming we don't drop out of it this year) unless we bring in a few more quality players.

Thank you Moyes for the gifs. They were never short in quality.
In a way, his fall aligned with the fall of the gifs. Webm is the new era.

We should be doing that regardless. United with their resource and finance are always going to be there or there about. It's all on what we do, as it should be.
Get Jack "the bastard of Bolton" Spearing.

They had the best manager in the world and he retired. He chose his successor and the rest is history. Having the best manager in the world is a vicious circle.
You're losing Vidic and potentially Ferdinand, so a CB is definitely needed I'd have thought. I'm not sure how strong a partnership of Smalling and Jones will be over the course of a season, and I suspect that's an area that LvG will look at very closely over the summer.

Wonder who Brendan will choose for us in 30 years' time. Raheezus, hopefully.
Hahahahaha
Scouse Cafu has the tactical nous.

It honestly feels like the final episode of Blackadder Goes Forth. Wonderful viewing, end of an era, but leaves a gaping hole in the heart. Maybe Giggs will fill it, at least temporarily.
Here is what I posted yesterday
Someone said they have Jones, Evans and Smalling. But like you, I do not think that is enough for the course of a season, there is no experience or leader amongst those three. Maybe Jones will come as good as expected, but United must buy a class CB or two.

In hindsight, Laudrup should have been sacked after the first game of the season.
Seems like it although no official statement has been made.
Graeme Bailey @GraemeBailey
Ryan Giggs to take charge of Man United until the end of the season, with Nicky Butt set to assist him.

I'd trust Ogden on this.
Shame though.

I think United should buy a CB too, but 2 cms and a lb hold priority over cb purchase. United have two cbs out on loan in Thorpe and Keane. I expect one of them to make the step up next season.
Giggs is a player coach this season.

Do they know Brendan is at Liverpool for life or are they playing dumb ?

One with 3 games left of the season, nothing to play for, and said player being a massive legend who's currently looking into coaching oppurtunities and could do with the experience, and the real targets being tied up until the end of the season at the earliest.

Let's just hope Chelsea don't treat Di Matteo in the same way
ok. I just hope he is not our long term manager.
How many games combined have the current CBs missed this year for United? Seems like a fair amount between the five of them.
There's no fucking way Jones, Smalling and Evans end up being the three main starters next year. Unlike in the midfield where they refuse to buy quality, they'll have to spend to strengthen at the back or risk being a perennial mid-table side for seasons to come. You can never have to much depth back there.
Just ask their neighbors...

lol, British pundit class defending their boy (i.e Gary Neville and his ilk). What will the excuses be if the new (likely foreign) manager brings United back into the top four next season?
Don't think so
Rodgers could very well be top by the start of the new season.

Meaningless question. There's 3 games left this season of no consequence and no managers immediately available. It's the logical thing to do.

Seems pointless to hire a manager for 3 weeks with nothing to play for.
