You absolutely bet Carrick played well, he was M.O.M.

Where did you pull this %40 possession stat from? I watched it. It was 50/50.

Totts created alot through the right side with Lennon. Evra had a poor game.

their prime usually isn't until they are 25-30, and they can play in to their late 30's easily so it's not like buying a 27 year old midfielder and only having him at his top for 2-3 years
Agreed.

Maybe Valdes for a few years, & loan out de Gea.

Agreed on Begovic. Loris is top 2? I haven't watched much of him, but his mistakes & benchings sure get glamorized.
