I could not agree more that is why i said i hope he proves me wrong. But i just dont feel that he is progressing like he should, i did not know he was playing in the cup final until he was put on the left wing, and consistently he needs to improve, i really hope he proves me wrong, but i just at this moment do not think he is a top four player.

I know where you're coming from Juande. As said, though, when the team is more balanced we'll see ALL the players play better.

For arguments sake, though, who would you sign on the right for a bit of competition for Aaron?

Lennon would be good for my suggested formation. Ricardo Quaresma would be perfect. Equally comfortable on the right or the left - he'd be ideal for the suggested system.

A front 4 of Diego (central) and Quaresma (either wing) behind Keane and Bebatov is a pretty awesome thought. Is the idea of signing both Diego and Quaresma in one summer realistic? Hardly. But how great could it be? :)

The main thing, surely, is to have the defence fixed before anything else. Brown, Vidic, Rio and Evra have featured in virtually every game for United this season, so that even when they haven't been firing on all cylinders up front they've been rock-solid at the back. We had a similarly permanent back four two years ago. I don't think it's any coincidence that we let in the fewest goals for yonks.

I say it because i have always liked Lennon and still, do and i really hope he can prove me wrong, but many times this season and last i have thought that there are areas of his game that have not improved, i would like to se him take on players more, and yes before you all start he can beat any player for pace, but i think he needs to work at his final ball which is very poor, and become more consistent. i really want Lennon to prove me wrong, but his does not seem to have improved for a couple of season, compared to other like wright phillips, although i would say his defending has improved under Ramos. so i have some hope


Well firstly reading the paper before the Chelsea v Spurs game, it showed that Lennon had 1% more cross accuracy then SWP Lennon also this season has been a lot more clinical shooter as you can see on here
