For me Spurs is a massive lesson for many clubs.
Sure they didn't buy the Ibra's/Ronaldo's/Messi's of the world, but they bought 7 talented players. What Spurs have shown us all is that bringing in 7 players into a squad in one season is very dangerous.
Moyes has been talking about a massive clear out and bringing in 6 or so players. I don't see this as a good idea at all, especially with how trash of a manager he is (especially regarding man-management).
I'm really worried about the future of United
Moyes wants to bring in 6 or so players but we all know damn well that he's not gonna sign that many...
let's be honest though,Utd does need some fresh new faces...
- Rio's contract is up at the end of this season
- Vidic looks set to leave for Inter
- Giggs has already taken a backroom role...if he hasn't featured much this season i don't think he'll appear anymore after that
- Ando's out on loan but i don't see Utd welcoming him back with open arms next season
add to that,a few other players face uncertainties over their future - Evra,Kagawa,Nani...
that leaves Utd desperately needing quality in two areas - defence and midfield...
a CB,LB and a top-quality CM is a must-buy in the next transfer window...
i'm also hoping that Moyes would give a chance to Powell,Zaha and Lingard to challenge for first-team places next season...
by the way,i heard Garay was solid against Spurs in that Europa League match - Utd's been eyeing him for awhile so getting him would be huge for them...
The thing is, I'm not doubting any of the older heads needing to leave. But replacements need to be found. Rio and Vidic leaving, means a new centre pairing is needed. Smalling and Evans are NOT the answer, and we already know this. So that should be a guaranteed 2 in. Another midfielder. 3. With Young and Nani on the brink of leaving, that's 4 minimum.
Even implementing 4 new starting players is very difficult for a quality manager, let alone David Moyes.
