The Busby Babe


An excellent article by the Busby Babe blog above. I think the likes of Mike. would certainly enjoy it

A generally good read but to be honest I still do not know who that "replacement" is likely to be, Modric and Sahin are very unlikely to happen.

A generally good read but to be honest I still do not know who that "replacement" is likely to be, Modric and Sahin are very unlikely to happen.

Sahin is surely out of contention. He will get chances this season.

If not Modric, would love to see Banega. Would be great to have CM who can dribble and good on ball when under pressure.
(Now before someone quotes and say he is injured and all that, I know but it is not career ending one).

He is a nut case though, its been long since we had one.

My choice
Modric, Banega, Granero and I'm not including Vidal and Martinez as I dont think they will leave this season.

Really exciting to see Reserves doing well. If Pogba finally decides to leave I think Tunnicliffe should go to our summer tour and see what he can do and Will Keane will benifit hugely by going on loan to a PL or a Championship club!

Yeah i hope so tunnicliffe looks really promising never really seen himhave a bad game, has been out on loan few times already so maybe should get a chance on summer tour with couple others!

Stand out player yesterday was Cole imo. When he was moved to CM after Brady was on he won so many tackles and dribbled past players with ease. I love him, he has very good ball control but very very light weight.

And after that if Petrucci wont get atleast a preseason tour then I dont know what more he has to do.

yeah petrucci defo deserves to go on tour hope he gets a chance coz he is old enough and i think clearly good enough maybe will go out on loan somewhere QPR, newly promoted side?

Yeah he should go out on loan where he can get few games. He has had enough reserve league games. Also Keane brothers should go to at least championship side.

Probably Brady may get few mins with us in cup games.

What's Will Keane like as a player? I've heard good things about him, but never seen him play, minus a couple of reserve playoff finals in which he didn't do too much (which, BTW, United won again the other day with a 3-1 penalty victory over Villa). I asked Mike., but he was all "hurr durr I'm going to kill the pope in Medieval II and choose the easiest faction like I choose the easiest team in FM durrrrrrr" so was no help.

Sort of Berbatov and Sherringham mixture type, I mean he has good very good ball control, excellent finishing ability. Can hold up ball very well but he is not ruthless. In that aspect he is like Berba. He finishes off his chances well but somehow not ruthless (Sometimes stays outside the box and wont burst to finish off any chance in the box) Sort of languid (Sometimes his body language is similar to Berba)

One thing that stands out in his game is his composure. He doesn't panic in the box even when he is marked by 2-3 players.

I love him! I think he could be a good partner for Welbeck in the future and Hernandez coming off the bench would be good! I think tunnicliffe has a very good chance so does Cole but he has to bulk up.

What's wrong with Rooney? He has atleast 5-6 years in him.

There's nothing wrong with him. I just think he would play behind the strikers in the long term or unless we sign someone to take pressure off of his shoulders.

 

[craig curtis]

Very happy with our reserves and youth set up has always been good cant wait to see who will get chance in 1st team or go out on loan next season?

Interesting. Thanks.

Partner? By the sounds of it he's someone who would be a good choice for rotation with Welbeck. If he's anything like Berbatov then I don't know whether they'd partner up perfectly.

There's nothing wrong with him. I just think he would play behind the strikers in the long term or unless we sign someone to take pressure off of his shoulders.

Rooney playing behind two strikers would be suicidal. I'd leave a massive shortfall elsewhere on the pitch.

Bullshit, I already said what i thought about Will Keane, go and read your messages. Told you on tuesday, and reposted it again.

Didnt need to kill the Pope, he died anyway.

Not saying kit is good, but not as worse as earlier pics looked.
