GETTING RID OF THE DROSS

From the squad.
Can we all appreciate how Fergie has got rid of the dross from our squad.
He quietly sold Obertan to Newcastle, Bebe was loaned to Beskistas where he suffered an injury and is out for 6 months. We were also waiting for a good offer to come for Gibson until the transfer window closed but unfortunately it didn't happen. Now Cleveley has stepped up, Fletcher is back with a bang and we have Anderson, Carrick and Giggs for the central midfield spots. Hargreaves was released too.
We also got rid of THE deadwood in Brown and O'shea. Although I was against the sale of O'shea mainly due to the twins being too injury prone but I didn't expect Smalling to adapt to the new position so quickly.
GREAT JOB BY THE MASTER!!!!!!
It's time we move ahead and let our talented youngsters do the talking. Any half-intelligent fan could come to know that the likes of Tosic, Bebe and Obertan were miles away from being "UNITED-QUALITY".
I expect Obertan to flop at Newcastle ( from what I have seen so far although I wish him luck) and I can foresee him being sold to some unknown club in the second division in France and also Bebe going into obscurity.
Can't believe some of our fans believed they had a future at United.
Our squad looks fantastic now with the perfect balance of "talented" youngsters and seasoned campaigners and we are definitely looking favourites for the title.
Lets hope we no longer go after such cheap signings and chase youngsters with genuine quality. We are Manchester United ffs!!!!
The future looks extremely bright.

I think Fergie plans to do that, hasn't he pretty much said that already.

The guy is a beast for his age !!

You didn't get rid of Bebe though he only went on loan and after picking up that serious injury it will be almost impossible for him to make an impact.

Batmanu
Why do you think Fergie sent him on loan that too in Turkey?
If Fergie trusted his ability then he would have persisted with him or at the most loaned him to another PL club.
Fergie is planning to build a young, talented and a side exciting to watch which will go on to dominate English football for a long time unlike Wengers kids and talentless players like Bebe, Obertan have no place.

I thought it was a bit shortsighted to get rid of Oshea.Players who can play in a variety of positions are few and far between.It's a long slog of a season and with the pace of the premier league contributing significantly to the general rise in injuries,you may well come to regret that particular piece of business

No we have Rafael, Fabio, Smalling, Jones, Valencia who can play at right back.
It was time to move ahead. I also had a few reservations regarding the sale of big John but I feel we have enough depth in our squad to cope up with injuries/loss of form.
I'd rather give the youngsters a chance unlike the Chelsea pensioners.

What an awful signing Bebe was. Massive waste of money.

Yes you're right Obertan was a terrible signing aswell. £6m was it?
