From what I seen, he's a bit small and I wonder whether he can adapt to the physicality of the premier league. He doesn't offer much except for scoring goals, a bit like Defoe I suppose, just a poacher.
I expect that's what Ferguson was looking for though, a goalscorer and nothing more.

He's 1.75m
it gives us more movement up front, as it'll allow rooney to drop deep and drag people out of position, create space behind for hernandez, since hes far more mobile than berbs

Will Anderson be ready for the start of the season?
it looks like that hernandez is a young michael owen type player, and if it is so we all remember the rooney-owen partenership back in 2004 dont we.
Yes if Anderson is given license to roan like he was at Porto then creative mid fielder problem will be solved. It might not be as fruitful as we want now, but in the long run it will save us fortunes.
For left winger, i am very confident Nani will be as good as he was at right. In the game against Bolton last season, he made 2 assists with 2 dummies, one he passed with left foot and one with Right. He will be so unpredictable as left winger,, it will give opponents lot to think about. If Valencia can somehow learn to play as left winger then our wing play will be joy to watch.

Or maybe he might be like Saha and we know Rooney Saha partnership dont we?

yer that was pretty good, its the reason why i hate saha now lol, he always scores against chelsea.
thats just it. valencia can only use his left foot to stand on. its nothing to do with nani, he was very good 2nd half of last season. this is more about putting back that unpredictability we have lost. 2/3 of oour attack cames down the right hand side, and despite scoring more goals, we still had 6 goalless games in the league compared to 1 the season before,Yes if Anderson is given license to roan like he was at Porto then creative mid fielder problem will be solved.

Maybe we are have some misunderstanding regarding Nani. I meant he was excellent in the 2nd half of the season and in few games from left side he was unpredictable. Dummy, cross with left, then one more dummy then cross with right. It was joy to watch.
And Lol Valencia did try 2 crosses (Which i remember) and one shot on targer with left foot. I know what you meant, just his left leg is not as useless after all XD
lol maybe not utterly useless, but his left leg doesnt offer much, certainly not if you are looking for two wingers swapping flanks like were used to.
re nani agree, when i say unpredictablity im talking about the team in general. our attcks are heavily baised towards the right when before they came from all areas of the pitch, which made us hard to defend against and pinned teams back.
it will be interesting to see what shape we line up in
Yes, so our best football was played in 2006-07 season when Ronaldo and Giggs were swapping wings. I feel SAF will address this. I mean now Valencia knows what is it playing fot United and he had whole summer to improve his weaker foot. Improve means i dont expect him to shoot from 3 yards but to an extent where he can cross from by line.
Oops we are going off topic..
Chicharito FTW..........
Not exactly easy goals. The goal against Argentina was Class and if someone like Messi/Rooney?Ronaldo had scored that kind of goal then many would have wowed for weeks

That goal was pretty good, but not amazing. Nobody would have raged about it for very long regardless of the scorer.
to be honest i dont see much change coming from valencia, hes been like that all his career, he wont learn to use his left foot in one season, though i would be very happy to be proved wrong

agree good goal, but not utterly amazing, was more impressed by his touch and movement off the ball. also he's stronger than he looks so i ahve good hopes for him, though i dont expect himto be some sort of superstar, just someone who can take the burden off rooney, if he gets 15 goals ill be very happy
