Man United: Is Replacing Players Enough?

Transfers out Wes Brown (Steve Bruce, £1m); John O'Shea (Steve Bruce, undisc); Ryan Tunnicliffe, Scott Wootton (both Darren Ferguson, loan); Nicky Ajose (Darren Ferguson, undisc); Joe Dudgeon, Corry Evans (both Nigel Pearson, undisc); Robert Brady (Nigel Pearson, loan); Ritchie de Laet (Norwich, loan); Bebe (Besiktas, loan); Owen Hargreaves (released); Edwin van der Sar, Paul Scholes (both retired, the latter to coaching) The retirement of such inspirational players as Paul Scholes and Edwin van der Sar demanded a reaction, and three defenders with more than 880 combined league appearances reached the end of the road at Old Trafford - Gary Neville heading to the TV studio and Wes Brown and John O'Shea to Sunderland. Brown and Neville barely played last season, but O'Shea appeared in just over half the games of United's title-winning campaign. Neville was semi-retired already and, without wanting to offend any of their relatives who may be reading, O'Shea and Brown look reasonably easy to replace. The plaudits that greeted the retirement of Scholes, though, were a measure of how good he was all the way through his career (even if he never learnt to tackle). A dozen years ago Peter Schmeichel bowed out after sealing the treble in Barcelona; it took Fergie six years to replace the goalkeeper properly, with Van der Sar. The Scot was not going to risk half-measures when he looked for a successor this time (and just as Wayne Rooney read too much into United's comeback, no one should judge De Gea on the Community Shield). A couple of questions arise. Is this expenditure enough to keep United on top domestically? And will it enable them to close the gap that was so brutally exposed by Barcelona at Wembley in the Champions League final? To flip the answers around, the consensus on the second point, pre-Sneijder, has been 'no'. And the first question demands a supplementary: would restoring what left United on top last season be enough to do so again? One highlight of the day the title was clinched was getting slagged off on the website of one employer (my day job) for something I wrote on another (this one). Suggesting that United were good enough to win the title by everyone else's standards but not necessarily their own got them going, as did Pete Gill's analysis of the number of points United picked up where they received the benefit of very little doubt on some decisions.
