I spend quite a bit of time in front of the computer during the day. I work as a software developer.

Also, I am a member of another forum which has a fairly cosmopolitan crew.

So riddle me this: How would Ferguson keep Nani, Ronaldo, Giggs, Carrick, Scholes, Hargreaves and Anderson constantly playing? Not to mention Park Ji-Sung, Fletcher, Richardson and Tevez if he comes. You only have 4 or 5 midfield slots and 90 minutes per game.

Logic dictates that Man Utd will lose several of these players in next few years. Half of them cost United Euro 15m+ which at this point of time are unproven at the highest level.

So, what the desired masterpiece look like in the end?

Richardson is being sold as soon as someone makes a decent bid. Giggs and Scholes are both still class players but are now 32-33 and will be gradually phased out, Nani and Anderson are potentially top class players but are still kids and will be phased in.

The desired masterpiece is therefore a highly fluid attacking unit of interchangeable players, with a relatively seamless transition from the remaining 90's legends to the new crop. In theory.

Its a fair point that Fergie doesnt always get it right but his record is as good as anyones, in 20 years he's bound to make a few mistakes. This side is emerging after a few years of transition. Tony actually made the point a few pages ago (totally correct once again) that this Utd side has really been in transition for a few years, before this years league we last won 5 years ago and that was the last hurrah of the 99 side. The new side is emerging now and should hopefully be ready by 2008.

Well, since this thread (along with the MM Member pictures, and Paolo Inzaghi of course ) is the only one I follow on MM, I have no idea what you're talking about

My knowledge on Moggipoli is based on Ch4 and goal.com ... and I don't remember seeing the story about phone bills there

But thank you, since I'm right and you're wrong

Andrade's partner in defence will most probably be the most overrated Italian defender after Legrottagllie ( who's also in Juve, lets not forget) Barzagli

Mr. Overrated + Mr. Glass Knee

Poor Buffon

I don't think Andrade is good news for Milan as I don't see him any worse of a CD than Milito would have been, only a little older but not too old ... he would come at half the price though.
He did have a serious injury the season before but still he is a quality CD and if there are any problems with his fitness, I doubt Juve would go ahead with the deal anyway, so if they sign him, one would think he's already sorted it out.

Should he stay healthy, Juve've got themselves an excellent CD at a good price, I think... After all, there aren't many CDs available out there who are as good let alone better than Andrade, so that should be taken into account too.

btw, is there anything concrete on Barzagli to Juve or is it mostly the fact that Miccoli went the other way that you guys think Barzagli is on his way to Torino?

Ad he isn't a bad defender you know, not as good as he is hyped, IMo, but not bad either and would form a good partnership with Andrade, which for now would suit Juve's needs ... should the team manage to make it into CL, then other options may very well be considered but for now those two would be more than a good choice, I think.

Andrade has recovered from his injury very well. I really think this is a great purchase for you guys, and La Liga viewers agree.
