as a man utd fan i am quite concerned about the lack of goals. We do not have an out and out goalscorer which is worrying. We lacked in front of goal on saturday and that wasnt because rooney was missing.
For me, i would like to see united sign owen in january, the reason for this is that he purely plays on the shoulders of defenders and with the way united play i think he would fit in perfectly and score goals.
im not saying for one minute that berba, tevez and rooney dont score or are not any good, the problem is for me is that they are all very similar. They drop deep to get the ball none of them really play on the shoulder which is what i think they need.
owen isnt your answer, never will be simply 'cos he is too short to hold it up and far too slow with his injuries
in theory berba should have been your "man" to unlock all of rooneys universal power

but for all his flicks tricks and through balls he is too slow too keep up with quite possibly (bar barca) the fastest attacking trio or quartet (if nani is included) in europe, like against the spuds unless it was a slow claculated build up i always though he was 5-10 yards off the pace ie the front line on the last shoulder . and serioulsy if you insist on firing all those crosses some give bera some heading lessons!
some on like drogba, benzema, eduardo, eto'o torress would do wonders at united hell even inzaghe would score a flipping bucket load.
