A trophyless season for us. But oh well, we need to strengthen the squad next season. Congrats to man city anyway.

Kagawa still has a lot of room of improvement and despite his age(only 23 this year) i can see huge potential in him. Yes, he's an asian but played his part to help dortmund to win the bundesliga twice.

What about second signing? A left back or DM/CM?

would love to see Adam Johnson in United, if it were true. that's a true left winger, unlike Ashley Muda or even The Nanny

So ronaldo plays left midfield and messi plays right. Not true winger? doh.gif

Come on lah, adam johnson played more on the right wing than left wing for man city last season.

But somehow Nani performed better while playing on the right compared to the left. That will cause some serious selection headache if Tony keep up with his form  hmm.gif

Yeah. But there's still ashley young. Don't think we will sign adam johnson tho.

"a true left winger"

y u change my sentence. i is sad.

i basically meant
- he's left footed
- his best position is on the left

Ashley Young and Nani, both bests (from what I see) position are on the right.

the beauty of them (not on their favourite foot's position) is they love to cut in. same as Young and Nani, if you noticed, which somewhat becomes predictable because they're not left-foot dominant hence they might be forced to cut in and use their right.

an example, you have a driving license and you can drive both motorcycle and car.
and then you are given an option to drive to place A. you can reach the place fast using a motorcycle.
HOWEVER, you cannot use the motorcycle because someone else is using it, so you're forced to use a car.

i just love to give random examples, pardon me.

have you ever wondered why Adam Johnson is always on the bench?

because Man City's style of playing does not involve wingers (at some certain times of course)

and they already have Kolarov on the left, which Mancini prefers (somehow) over Adam Johnson.
*
For your info. Young played more on the left more than any other position whether its for aston villa and manutd(I think that's his best position - yes he played the role behind the striker more often during last season before leaving villa.).Look at wingers these days, robben, ribery, ronaldo, messi...they play roles as unorthodox wingers. Do u actually think that we should sign adam johnson to play left-wing just because he is a left-footed player? Do u actually think he is better than ashley young and nani at that particular position?Hmm.

What's the problem with nani? He used to play left midfield when he first arrived at manutd. And nowadays he's has been changing flanks. So you think adam johnson plays better than nani on the left flank?

And for your info again, kolarov is on the sub most of the time as well since when did he become man city's first choice left midfield?. It's DAVID SILVA not kolarav. It's clichy who's been playing on the left flank alongside david silva. If u actually watch adam johnson playing, he scores goals from the right side most of the time.

P/S: There's no such thing as true left winger. It's called unorthodox/orthodox wingers. Example: Unorthodox left-wingers (right-footed)(Robinho, Ribery, Ashley Young) Orthodox wingers(Ryan giggs)


Maybe u have your point. Sorry if im being too harsh.

I hope we will opt for a CM/LB instead. Kagawa would be great, but i think he will be attacking more instead. I'd love someone who can keep possesion, make a lot of passes. Trackback and try to win the ball tongue.gif

nah no problem, just having a discussion here.

woops my bad on the Kolarov part. I was aware of Clichy being on the left side of defence, but I forgot who kept playing on the left side of attack.

adam johnson is a good addition because it brings more depth to the squad. nani and young were off form, and we had to rely on Giggs, which most of us know, he does not operate well on the wings like his golden days anymore, he should be better off in the center.

i'm not saying young and nani cannot play left, but it's not their natural position. why put a player not in his natural position (but if they perform fantastic, then i have nothing to say la). young and nani both are fantastic players, no doubt, but having adam johnson will be an interesting mix to the wingers list.

and also on your young point, of course he's played more on the left. who else can play there? we got no one else. SAF had to play him there despite his right-footedness.

i maybe used the term incorrectly, because what I meant was a player playing on the side with his best foot. i might have overreacted the term true left winger though.
*
Actually, left wing is ashley young and nani's best position. And if u wanna call it their natural position. Ashley young can play left, centre and right. But still, playing on the left i see the best in him.

I doubt we will sign another winger tho. Even if johnson joins us, don't be surprised if he plays on the right of midfield tho. There are a lot of good right footed players who play on the left wing. Example: Cristiano ronaldo, Franck ribery, Robert pires, Andres Iniesta, robinho.

Yes i understand what u're trying to explain. You want us to sign a left winger who is left-footed(Like giggs, gareth bale)

He played more on the right last season. He didn't play left midfield that many this season tho. When he first joined united, he played a lot of left midfield.

SAF normally not doing that (buying hyped /hit player of the tournament)..

the last one i remember, Karel Poborsky (was hit on Euro 1996, virtually unknown before that)

Ferdinand (WC 2002), Hernandez (WC 2010) deal was agreed before the tournament.. Rooney (Euro 2004) was most hyped teenager in England before the tournament..

Torres was on our radar when he have great WC 2006 (the link was before the WC), we approached him probably a year later but he preferred Liverpool.. Valencia have great WC 2006, but we waited almost 3 years to bought him after he proved himself in BPL.

not remember much hyped /hit players in major tournament bought by SAF..

Umm there's one. Fabien barthez. Considered a failure tho.

Actually. Sneijder's best position is AM. Since we've got kagawa already so a big no to sign him. Modric would be excellent. smile.gif
