Wow, a lot of hate. Also, I think Ronaldo's pretty sick now that he has toned down the diving and what's wrong with Real Madrid?

Man U is gonna take the premier league again next year...Nani is gonna have a breakout season and Anderson is finally gonna start scoring goals. Plus the 80 mill give Man U plenty of money to finally sign Tevez for good! Plus money to buy some other young talent.  Plus the team is so deep the loss of Ronaldo won't be that bad.

Sergio Ramos
and Casillas is a nasty goalie

Real Madrid is undeniable

I think this will hurt Man Utd more than people think....short of Rooney they don't have anyone who I'd bet on scoring more than 10 goals in the season. 

Look at their remaining attacking players:

Giggs- Old!
Anderson- Not a scoring threat in any manner.
Berbatov- Meh, he'll score over 10 but isn't the game changer people make him out to be
Park- Not a scorer
Nani- Too raw, lacks discipline, score a few but not someone you want starting


They need to sign some scoring talent and a better CM (why they lost to Barca)

Ya it will be interesting to see who man u signs. they neeed ribery. i think they should sell nani. Im not a huge fan of anderson but sir alex is sold on him. Tevez is who they really need to keep but he doesnt want to stay. Their defense is on par but they need to sign 3-4 offense minded players to stay on top.

and i think it will be longer than you think for man city to become a powerhouse. Money doesnt mean sucess necessarily. You need coaching and chemisty which doesnt come easy.

First of all it doesn't matter that giggs is old...he had one of the best seasons of his life last year.
Anderson just hasn't found he scoring touch at Man U yet, go youtube him when he was a sporting, he had wicked goals there
Berbatov was a little out of it in the second half of the season, but things could change with ronaldo gone.
Park is a scorer...did you watch any of the Champions league
Nani needs to grow up, ronaldo was the same way the first year or two he was at old trafford...were you even a soccer fan back then?

Oooo harsh words....unfortunately unsubstantiated.

Park a scorer?  Really the one who had 1 goal and no assists in the CL, or the one who managed to score 4 goals all year?  No Ji Sung Park is not a scorer, he's there for hustle and to help track back.

Berbatov has a great first touch, sweet but that's not going to score goals. 

Anderson will score, but he's not going to create many of them.  His best bet is shots from outside of the 18 and that's not a sure bet with him.

Giggs, had a great year I agree.  But you really think he's a scoring threat still?  He's more there for assists.......

As for being a soccer fan more than 3 years ago, you can bet I was and I'll guarantee Nani never succeeds in the EPL so your reference to his development being comparable to Ronaldo's is weak.

I don't care who Man U signs, Liverpool or Arsenal are winning the EPL next year. 

And I highly doubt TEvez is staying so there's another blow
