Man U had started to show their holes last season, Ferguson was a strong enough manager to cover those holes up, and had just enough respect to squeeze every last drop his veterans had in them.

The back line had already started to fall apart, midfield depth was already an issue (Carrick carried the midfield), and really it was the brilliance of RVP that won them in a lot of matches.

Then it didn't help that Moyes started at a disadvantage since some key players were not happy with the change since they were told by Ferguson that he wasn't leaving anytime soon.

A strong transfer window that brings in some reinforcements in defense and the center of midfield and they will be fine next year.
all the transfers have to go through Rooney now though
