Ronaldo can't replace Scholes becos he plays on the right, Scholes play in the middle, maybe Liam Miller might be the one since he is coming in the summer and there still Chris Eagles too. :p

But Joaquin would be great but somehow I doubt it cos Ronaldo, Fletcher and Ole are already playing on the right.

Police to decide on Utd 'thuggery'

Feb 9 - Everton and Merseyside Police will decide today whether to set Manchester United on a collision course with the Football Association once again.

After being flooded with complaints about the conduct of Roy Keane, Gary Neville and Cristiano Ronaldo near the end of United's 4-3 win, Goodison Park officials have sifted through scores of written statements from fans and studied closed-circuit television footage.

They will discuss the evidence with the police before announcing today whether to refer the matter to the FA and have been assured a thorough investigation will be launched, if they do.

An FA spokesman confirmed: "Nothing has yet been brought to our attention, although if it is, we would of course look into it."

A spokesman for Merseyside Police said last night: "In conjunction with Everton FC, a review will be made of any incidents that may have occurred during the match."

United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is already embroiled in a bitter wrangle with horseracing magnate John Magnier and still reeling from the FA's recent decision to hit Rio Ferdinand with an eight-month ban for missing a drugs test.

Another clash with authority now appears likely after a late flashpoint that followed Ruud van Nistelrooy's 89th-minute winning goal.

Angry fans from the main stand queued up for nearly an hour to give statements claiming that fans in the family enclosure had been subjected to abusive language and offensive gestures from Keane.

On the opposite side of the ground, there were similar complaints of incitement by Neville and Ronaldo, who was involved in another flare-up seconds later when a fan tried to run on to the pitch to confront him before being bundled away by stewards.

United refused to comment ahead of any possible FA action but are believed to feel there was undue provocation from home supporters.

I be ******* pissed if any action is taken against Keane, Ronaldo and Gary Neville. :f***:

If that does happen, that will a hell of a line-up. But we still need somemorehome-grown players other than Fletcher. Someone from England, some one like Eagles or Richardson.

There's no substitute for quality, and if the youngsters have what it takes to be regulars in the first team, then Joaquin being there shouldn't make too much difference. I haven't seen Eagles play, but Richardson definitely has talent. He just needs to bulk up and get a bloody haircut.

Ronaldo has said that his favourite position is playing just behind the two strikers - like scholes, so i think that is where he will end up :p

perhaps fergie's thinking about putting CR on the left as the evenutal replacement for Giggs, and Joaquin on the right, not needing Robben, or perhaps buying him as a replacement for Scholes or........ :p

Immediate concern is a defender. IMO would love us to get Van Buyten, he would be a perfect partner together with Rio after he finish his ban.

Our midfield and attack is pretty much settled although would be nice if we get Robben in the summer.

Midfield: Ronaldo, Ole, Butt, Phil Neville, Scholes, Keane, Giggs, Kleberson, Eric Djemba Djemba

Forward: Ole(can also play in attack too) Saha, Ruud, Forlan, Bellion

opps yeah, but Fletcher look awful whenever I seen him play.

his biggest problem is he hasn't done any individual thing to make him stand out yet, so alongside ronaldo you can't think of individual moments as promising as those ronaldo's produced. i don't think he's had a direct assist yet, and obviously hasn't scored for us either. he's clearly still finding his feet physically and tactically, and i think with time he'll mature into a midfield player with some stature.

I would not be surprised to see Solskjaer play a role in the derby on Saturday afternoon, after all Louis Saha is cup-tied like you said.

I hope Kleberson is given a role, he was marvellous back in the last derby. (Y).

Former United Favourite talks about the Everton game. :)

http://www.skysports.com/skysports/article/0,,53-1122339,00.html

Gordon McQueen revealed that he was astounded after witnessing two 4-3 thrillers in a week.

The former United favourite told Soccer Saturday that he had not thought anything would compare to Wednesday's epic between Tottenham v Manchester City, but felt he had already found its match.

"After Wednesday night, I didn't think I would ever see anything like it again because it was sensational," he told Jeff Stelling. "Well, three days later I've just watched one because this was absolutely fantastic."

Manchester United were 3-0 up at half-time and, according to Gordon, it could have been twice that amount. But David Moyes used all three substitutes at the break and Everton came back a refreshed side.

McQueen said: "The first half Manchester United were just awesome. Saha scores twice, Van Nistelrooy scores, but before, during and after those goals, Manchester United should, and could, have added to that.

"Saha could have had a hat-trick and Van Nistelrooy could have had a hat-trick. I tell you what, they could have been six-nil up at half-time easily.

"But well done to David Moyes because his substitutions, at half-time, played sensationally well in the second half; Radsinski, Rooney and Naysmith were terrific and it was just an unforgettable game."

Since last week's 3-2 victory over Southampton, the United defence has come in for heavy criticism, but McQueen insists that they cannot be blamed for conceding three goals during Everton's second-half fight-back.
"I watched Manchester United last week and I ended up being critical of Manchester United's defence," he added. "They did play poorly against Southampton. They made a lot of mistakes.

"But it wasn't so much mistakes today, it was just the sheer force of Everton's attacking play. They put so much into it."

Kompany would be a good buy, and he would be welcome with open arms, but I doubt he would play straight away, he would probably be a sub due to his age.

We could get him and Van Buyten.
