interesting weekend for Man U.

2 good signings, but still glaring holes - Up top, bar Rooney absoloutly nthing, and still soft at both centre back and will need a keeper unless they trust Valdes, which is a toss up and downgrade either way ou look at it.

Getting a little concerned as rumour after rumour signs elsewhere - standing still is not an option this summer, we need players in asap to bed in and start the season well. We must have saved a prett ypenny on wages this summer, and have a decent kitty already, so no excuss.

Last year we conceded one more goal than Arsenal having experienced and extremely difficult start with a succession of injuries. I think you are over doing the inadequacies. Smalling, Jones, Rojo and Shaw will all likely be better this coming year, and now we have a) a proper right back, and b) much more solid defensive midfield.

The difference between the two teams in points was made up by our lacklustre performance against the lower teams. With the all round defensive improvement and the addition of a wild card in Depay and possibly a more acclimatized Di Maria, I think you may be surprised by how good we might be, whether or not we sign another CF or CB, which we might well do. In any event LVG is a man who likes his CF in a 4-3-3 to occupy the CBs allowing others to find space and score. You can go back to our game against City when Rooney had the fewest touches in his career and yet Gary Neville suggested LVG might regard that as his finest game.

What we have done this summer is what Arsenal under Wenger seem to have been reluctant to do, which is add the brawn to go with the brain.

My treacherous Gooner wife is quaking in her boots! Well not really, she knows an Arsenal win over United isn't in the interests of maintaining marital bliss.
