Nick OGS20 Posted June 23, 2005 Author Share Posted June 23, 2005 And so it starts again... Much of the United focus of late has rightly been on off-pitch matters, and there'll be plenty of talk of that as we go on no doubt, but putting that aside for now and concentrating on footballing matters, there's a lot to look forward to. A proven, world-class keeper, the new winger we've been crying out for and hopefully more new arrivals to come. Throw in a fully fit and raring to go RvN, a resurgent Ginger Prince, Rooney, Ronaldo and Fletch with another season under their belts, Rossi, Jones, Pique and co. starting to come through, the defence getting ever more solid, more crunching tackles from ghifb, and the return of one Ole Gunnar Solskjaer A disappointing past two seasons can't be ignored, and there's questions to be answered in many areas, but with a bit of luck, some consistency of team selection from the man with the plan, and perhaps a new defensive midfielder, there's no reason why we can't be up there and giving that penultimate game some real meaning.
