Whilst we'd score many goals, probably, the former line-up consists of almost 4 strikers, a winger and a midfielder. We'd be annihilated defensively. haha Maybe maybe not. Rooney, valencia and Cleverley all track back and help a lot in defense. Plus teams will try to park the bus rather than be gung ho simply because we will players with pace, strength to really score goals and screw them on the counter. If this is possible ( After RvP i dream anything is) we should defo get him

They're not defensive minded players though; they may harry opposing players but it's not the same as screening the defenders, breaking up play and providing a solid midfield base from which to launch attacks. Even Barcelona with all that wonderful attacking talent still have Busquets and Mascherano (when he isn't stuck in central defence) to anchor the midfield.
United on the other hand have struggled to stop leaking goals even with Carrick sitting in front of the defence. Take that position out in favour of another striker and I think we'd be seeing very high scorelines, not always in United's favour.

Exactly.
Adding Falcao won't encourage teams to suddenly park the bus. Adding RVP still hasn't solved the problem - teams have realized that if you attack us, you'll likely score. Chances are, without getting touched as our midfield zonal defensive "system" hardly clatters opposing players who take a touch too many.

www.soccer365.com/news/world_news/the_view_from_mexico/26605/chicharito_back_in_the_goals_and_set_to_stay_at_manchester_unitedExtract: Ferguson has consistently praised Hernandez and shown no indication that he wants the 24-year-old to leave. "He trains magnificently, he's improving all the time and he's got me thinking," said Ferguson after the Braga game. 'With him, Van Persie, Rooney and Welbeck ... I don't know what you do with them, to be honest.' What´s more, Chicharito´s agent Eduardo Hernandez has been firm in coming out and stating that the player is in the right place and going nowhere. “Don´t let yourselves be guided by the nonsense in the English press, they are rumors,” Eduardo Hernandez told Fox Sports. “He´s steady in Manchester United.” Reacting to those who have said Chicharito needs to leave the northern English club, the agent, who represents many of Mexico´s top players, was equally forthcoming. “It´s extremely stupid to say that he is wasting time in Manchester United when he has Wayne Rooney and Robin Van Persie, one of the world´s best strikers, at his side,” Hernandez stated. “You don´t know what he is learning day in, day out in each training. He´s in the best place and everyone around him has no doubts about that.” He added: “Chicharito is like wine, you have to let it mature. He´s in a superb university, look at it like that.” In recent weeks, Hernandez has been linked with a host of clubs including Fiorentina, Liverpool, Borussia Dortmund, Porto, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. The Mexican press naturally jumps on any rumor from the Old Continent involving the national team´s most high profile player. But if he puts in a few more performances like the one against Braga, talk will turn not to Chicharito leaving Manchester United, but to whether those two goals on Tuesday were the first notes of another crescendo in the Guadalajara native´s career.

Rice wine is used in East, Southeast and in some parts of South Asia. Rice wine is also a huge ingredient in many Chinese and Southeast Asian cuisines. Sake is made from fermenting rice, though.
