Where do we go from here?

And now we are out of the Europa League again,but more disappointingly is the performance of the team.Its the worse team performance I have seen since 2005 when we were loosing 4-1 to Manchester City and Middlesbrough. 

As dissapointing at it seems, it shows a pattern.Just as then, the squad age was mixed with certain players at that time were very young and yet to fulfill their potential.For example, Wayne Rooney,Cristiano Ronaldo).While there were some very senior players that were past their prime but still at the club due to their vast experience, a trait which Ferguson appreciates very much as it helps nurture the next squad.For example, at that time, we still had Roy Keane,Gabriel Heinze,Ruud Van Nistelrooy.And we also had some certain players that are not good enough in the club but still played due to lack of personell. Back then,it was Eric Djemba-Djemba,Quinton Fortune.

This season, we can see the same trend with young players like Chris Smalling,Phil Jones,Tom Cleverly,Fabio and Rafael showing some brilliant performance but yet to grow into their shoes.The old guards are of Dimitar Berbatov,Patrice Evra and Rio Ferdinand.I would not include Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes as their perfomance have defied their age.Yes,they are that good.They simply have passed their prime and have to leave.As simple as that.And there are those misfits who are still around such as Michael Carrick,Park Ji Sung and Johny Evans.

Yes,I know this squad is still that is in transition but the key difference is back in January 2005, Fergei went out and bought Patrice Evra and Nemanja Vidic,two crucial crucial signings that proved key to the success of the teams in the following few seasons.The question now is, can he find such players again or even if he does, will he be able to sign them with teams like Manchester City,Chelsea,Barcelona and Real Madrid lurking around with big pockets?

A few signings need to be made,especially in central defence where we need another good partnership like we had Bruce Pallister,Stam Irwin,Vida Rio..and another Paul Scholes.Ohh I sure hope that boy Paul Pogba shares more things with Scholesy than just his first name.

Whatever the future brings, good or bad, success or not, this is a club that I love and I support.If all goes well, we would have the most exciting young team in Europe in the next few years.Fingers crossed for that but if it doesnt, love Manchester United love still be there.Glory Glory Man United!
