The current Manchester United squad is much bigger and have good strengths in deep in all departments especially striking department compared to past few seasons. Summer acquisitions Robin van Persie, Shinji Kagawa, Alexander Buttner and Nick Powell added the missing
ingredients the red devils missed last season in which they ended the campaign empty handed. This current season are much more promising as United are fighting for all three major trophies.
Sitting on top of the Premier League table with 12 points better than 2nd placed Manchester City, progressed to the 5th round of the F.A Cup in which they’ll face Reading FC at Old Trafford and completed Champions League round of 16 1st leg against Real Madrid with a promising 1 – 1 draw on Wednesday night. However the only concern for Sir Alex for now is the playing time his star players might get as the competition for regular place in starting XI are much tough as all players are performing very well especially forwards.
It can be described as a healthy problem for a manager like Sir Alex’s calibre who full with experience and faced similar situation on his career before but modern players are much more pampered and gets disappointed easily,to make it worst football agents nowadays will make use of the situation by searching for a new club for their client if they are not happy.
With an FA Cup tie against Reading, a trip to basement boys QPR and a home game against out-of-form Norwich prior to the second leg of the Champions League clash at Old Trafford, Sir Alex has the breathing space required to rest key men and play his less used players like Nani,Chicharito who doesn’t start the Champions League clash against Madrid.
