Nah, we've been over reliant on counter attack. I've been crying out for the return of possession football. As for scoring from distance, Carrick, Gibson and Nani are some players actually having the skill to score from range, but I think the priority the coming season will be to find a footballing system fitting the players we are going to use, namely Rooney in the center, and accomodating more traditional wingers. But I do agree about us lacking the threat that Ronaldo posed as he could score from the least amount of space afforded to him. @Matt: Us trying to pass the ball into the net?

Just thought I'd check in with a few comments. I've been quiet of late because I've been involved in my big move. It's been a killer. Too much stuff and too much crap to throw away. The penalty one pays for being a collector and pack rat. The last week has been absolute killer and hasn't given me any time to sit back and check out Red Rants and see how the boys are doing. Not much happening really. Again I can't say I was impressed with the team's result vs the Koreans. But I know it isn't a true measure of the squad. Good to see Kiko doing well and I am very encouraged by young Gibson. Could be the making of a new Beckham. Remember Becks wasn't a right sided midfielder when he started either and if Gibby can deliver crosses and balls into the box like he has been doing, he could become a real revelation. To bad that overrated pile of slop Valencia will keep him on the bench. Valencia is not a bad little player but for me, he's just not United class. Good to see Macheda playing well but I still feel that Welbeck is the more talented of the two. Yes I could be wrong but I am with Dan on this one. I also think that once Macheda turns 20 or 21 he will be dying to return to Italy where Welbeck is United thru and thru. Only time will tell. Finally, thank god for EVDS. Without him we would be up Shit Creek without a paddle. Foster and Pig are just awful and have given the term "clown shoes" a new meaning. So that's all from me until next Thursday or Friday. Once I am in the new place and settled in I shall return with my cloud of darkness and gloom of doom to entertain, frustrate, irritate and confuse and occasionally cause the odd chuckle. Until then cheers mates and remember......UNITED FOR LIFE! :smile: Cheers gang. Just thought I’d check in with a few comments. I’ve been quiet of late because I’ve been involved in my big move.
