Do you think that's it? We have a pretty settled back 4 apart from Hibbert in and out, and I think Lucas Neill is a very good player who can pass. Definitely a push on Hibbert.
Yobo maybe out for Jags, but other than that it's the 4 you want.
I think our problems are lying with Fellaini who just doesn't do enough for the price we paid for him, so he's forever going to have the pressure upon him, and he's just not that player who can control a game.
So more often than not the game just passes him by.
Saha is a great talent and I don't think we are getting it into his feet quick enough.
What we need to do is what we did 2nd half and that is demand the ball and pass it around, instead of the desperate hoof. So with that in mind we didn't lose any players injured at half time, it was pretty much the same side bar 1 player, and we played some good football.
So yeah Arteta, Pienaar will help, but it's the mental block of playing these sides where we give them too much respect. Lesser quality teams have gone to Old Trafford and gave them a game, I think we have good players, and were capable today of doing so, we did that in the 2nd half - the goals we conceded were unfortunate.
I'm not saying injuries are not a concern, but we need to accept them and work with what we have. The fact that we did in the 2nd half to me proves that the players are - some fans though are not and use it as an excuse every time.
