i think what he's trying to say is our squad needs a playmaker.
dont wanna lose it to chelsea by a few points again this season cos of a crappy midfield.

sneijder seems like a good buy?

well i guess that they are valid points, but i dont like blaming other factors such as the referee. that way we sound more like arsene wenger.

our midfield lacks creativity, and giggs and scholes are around just to have cover for the others. look at carrick's dismal performance this season. even hargreaves is always injured and anderson is not even good enough to play first team matches.

saying that we were almost there isnt good enough for a club like ours. and also give them another year sounds like what arsene wenger has been saying for the past 5 years.
