United's buys have been shrewd and quite fantastic. To claim otherwise is just silly. Kagawa, adds an AM dimension to their game. Moura in my opinion, probably reminds Ferguson of Ronaldo. An immensely skilled player (with tricks and speed you cant teach) who can be trained into productivity the way Ronaldo was after a few years. If they add either a the LB from Everton or Van Persie, they would had perhaps a more impressive summer than anyone in the league. I truly hope they get neither. Cuz right now they have done quite well.LoveCity said:Can't see how Moura is a panic buy when he will play a position they have good players in, seems like a predetermined buy to me maybe to prepare for Nani's exit. Kagawa also wasn't a panic buy as they chased him for ages and he fills a void (United had no creativity in the middle).
Arsenal too has done very well with additions of Giroud, and Podolski. if they pull off the (Carzola, and Sahin) deals, they too would have improved immensely. Now don't get me wrong, I dont think any of these players are world best. But you have to compare what is coming in to what is being replaced.
We know what Chelsea has done so far, Marin, The Belgian, and Oscar. We don't know how they;d pan out. But that is a scary talent accumulation. rumors of adding Moses to that list too.
The point here is that all the teams around us, have tooled up. We need to too.
I am really hopeful that the Agger, De Rossi, Sinclair trifecta comes to fruition. That will mean, we too have strengthened at every weakness.
Now that wouldn't guarantee us the league, but it would put us in pole position. The league will be won over the season, not on some belief of who has the most talented squad.
