Man Utd: New look attack, same old story
Manchester United’s attack may have lost half of its goals, but one man who won’t be losing any sleep at the prospect of a new frontline is Sir Alex Ferguson.
With respect to every club in the Premier League bar Manchester United, it’s unlikely that any of them would be able to lose the calibre of players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez and still be favourites to win a title.
Manchester United are not just any other club though; they are a club that have been guided by a managerial genius ever since Sir Alex Ferguson arrived at Old Trafford in November 1986. Now richer, more successful and even more famous than ever before, United are about to embark on a season without two players who accounted for nearly 50% of the club’s Premier League goals during the last two years.
But you can rest assured Sir Alex won’t be one bit phased. He has bought and sold some of the world’s most gifted, famous and controversial footballers during his tenure in Manchester, yet you can count on one hand – even wearing a boxing glove – the amount of mistakes he’s made in the transfer market.
Without Ronaldo and Tevez, United have drifted to 3.3 (from an initial 2.32) to retain the title, but with Wayne Rooney, Michael Owen and Dimitar Berbatov at the club, plus the emerging talents of Danny Wellbeck and Federico Macheda, then this team still has plenty of goals to offer.
But it’s the £16m capture of winger Antonio Valencia that will prove pivotal to United’s attack this season – not because he is a Ronaldo-esque player who will score a bag full of goals, but because he is an old-fashioned winger that will allow Ferguson to play two out-and-out strikers.
Of course, with so much talent at his disposal, Sir Alex won’t always play two strikers in a 4-4-2 formation, but when he does it is likely to be Valencia on the right, Rooney more to the left, and any two from Owen, Berbatov, Wellbeck and Macheda in attack. Owen and Berbatov are obviously going to be first choice, but with so many games to play in a typical Manchester United season, the importance of Wellbeck and Macheda can’t be underestimated.
Whilst those latter two players don’t feature in Betfair’s Top Goalscorer market, both Owen and Berbatov certainly catch the eye at 18.0 and 30.0 respectively.
