Hernandez's overall game isn't that great though 99, his touch is awful at times, he doesn't exactly link play well and he's not incredible in the air. Sure, I agree he'll improve this season and have a good one for sure, but his strengths, essentially, are his speed and finishing.
Excited to see what sort of combinations develop between Wazza, Welbeck, Hernandez, Kagawa, Valencia, Young and Nani.

I think you'll find Rooney and Wazza are one and the same...I guess you meant Welbz though... It would be interesting if they could all get on the pitch at the same time....

The season before last when we won the league and got to CL final Hernandez was a huge part of this. Our style chnaged to one with real pace in attack where defenders were scared shitless to push up the field. Rooney had far more space as a result. Berba is a wonderful talent no doubt but not the 30 mill player I thought he would be. To say his Chico's overall game is shite is utter nonsense. Again this is not only our opinion but also the opinion of the gaffer and the coaching staff. When berba was left out of the CL final squad he should have walked that summer. There has been no real way back since good post

When Fergie played Berba , it was tevez who had to sit , has berba was given enough to prove and the thoughts was "Sign Up Tevez" , when chico was signed and played-he scored and so stayed on the field. Hence the preference to Chico as well as Welbeck. If danny wasn't going to be given games we would have lost him to Sunderland or someone else , what would you wanted - to keep Danny or Berba. The right decisions were made and well Berba just ain't in them anymore. Nothing to do with his talents or abilities its just that we have evolved or are evolving our play and it needs someone else according to our Gaffer

..... and still nobody wants to pay his wages!
Berbatov harps on about wanting to move on but it'll be his wage demands which are stopping him. £5million is a snip for a player like him.

Rumours circulating that Sunderland are considering making a bid. Hope they're not true. He deserves to play for a bigger club.

www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2190347/Sir-Alex-Ferguson-quit-Manchester-United-years.htmlSir Alex Ferguson has planned his exit strategy from Manchester United and will quit in two years' time after building his last great team around Wayne Rooney and last week's £24million capture from Arsenal, Robin van Persie. And the legendary Old Trafford manager, who begins his 28th season in charge of United at Everton on Monday night, claims the Glazer family will back him again if he makes a formal bid for England left-back Leighton Baines before the end of the transfer window on August 31. Ferguson, 70, took personal control of the Van Persie signing and called Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger directly to ensure his final chapter at Old Trafford is successful, having lost the title to Roberto Mancini's Manchester City on the final day of the season in May. And he persuaded the Glazers, against the advice of other senior figures at the club, to rubberstamp a £64m investment in transfer fee and wages for Van Persie, even though the 29-year-old Dutchman will have a limited re-sale value. A source said: 'Alex will only be manager for a couple more years so it was time the owners gave him what he wanted. That's Van Persie.' Ferguson might even enter the market again to land Baines, who is valued at £17m by his club Everton. 'There is only one position in particular we are looking at,' the manager said. 'We've splashed out quite a bit of money this summer but I'm sure if I went to the Glazers, they'd say ''yes''.' Ferguson will decide on the evidence of Van Persie's first two training sessions before deciding whether his new signing will start in Monday night's Barclays Premier League visit to Goodison Park. Ferguson was at Craven Cottage on Saturday to run the rule over Fulham, next weekend's opponents. United have received two solid inquiries from Italian clubs for Dimitar Berbatov.Darren Fletcher, 28, who is battling ulcerative colitis, continued his comeback on Saturday with a 90-minute run-out in United's 1-0 win at Stoke in the Barclays Under-21 Premier League.

Rumours are circulating that City's chase for Jovetic depends on Fiorentina signing Berba. I say lets make them sweat and only sanction any possible deal on 31st August. Meanwhile we can give Berba his Old Trafford farewell as well.

Good lord that's a fantastic Idea.
City's transfer policy, or lack of, is baffling.

I approve both of those plans. Both fucking city over and Berbatov getting a proper farewell, and his signing for Fiorentina. I've had a soft spot for them ever since Batigoal. And it will give me an (albeit flimsy) excuse to visit Firenze more often.

would love berba to go and play in serie A, i think he could rip it up over there.
never been to italy so there'd be a decent excuse.
