Alot Done, More To Do
What a season. In my wildest dreams I would I would never have imagined that we would be deserved Champions. With only one new addition to the squad from the previous season, Michael Carrick, this must rate as one of Fergies greatest ever achievements.
Like many of my fellow suporters, I couldn't see where the necessary improvement would come from the squad we have to make a genuine push for the title. Fergie saw quality in the squad that we didn't and his belief has been rewarded in spades by their magnificent performances this season.We still have the FA Cup to play for so the season isn't quite over yet.
A number of players have also developed into top class performers for us also this season. Vidic has been a rock for us and his partnership with Ferdinand has been the foundation for our success. Evra and Carrick, the latter in particular, have also been immense for us and have silenced a number of their doubters. They are two players who I believe will only improve.
The real revelation for us this season though has got to be Ronaldo. His rise to prominence is reminiscent to a caterpillars blossom into a butterfly. He was infuriating last year with little end product and a frustrating need to over elaborate. This and his antics in the World Cup made him one of the most reviled characters in the Premiership but he has let his football do the talking. He has emerged to be one of the most exciting talents to come from the league in a long time and I take my hat off to him. I have been one of his harshest critics but if he can repeat or improve his form of this season, we have a lot to look forward to.
All this adulation must come with a word of warning however. We need to strengthen our squad in a number of positions. We need a dominant powerful central midfielder, we need a pacey striker who can last a season and we need a winger as a potential replacement for Giggsy, who has had his best season for us in a long time. It has been a brilliant season for us but it is imperative we don't rest on our laurels. We are very close to having a great squad. (Hargreaves isn't the man for us either but that is for another day)
