Our Match Winners

[TartanTerror]

The announcers make it sound as if Torres is our only match winner. Granted he has been absolutely key to our play lately, but here are other players who have won a game for us this year (EPL only)

Gerrard(3)
Sissoko(1)
Alonso(1)
Benyoun(1)
Kuyt(1)
Torres(3)
Hyppia(1)
Own Goal(1)
Crouch(1)
Babel(1)

I compared this to Arsenal, who so far have 10 different match winners with Adebayor(4), Fabregas(3), and Eduardo(3) leading the way. ManU's struggles in the early season are no surprise after learning that only 7 different match winners have scored and two of their three most prolific match winners were injured at the start of the season Ronaldo(7 !!!), Teves(5), Rooney (4). So the plan is to hire a couple of goons to bash The Fop and Teves' kneecaps and we can watch the Manu season fall apart

I think we've found the needed balance with this 4-3-3 / 4-2-1-3 formation. It's flexible, can be malleable to a 4-4-2 during a match and allows Steven the freedom he craves.

We need another very good player to cover for Babel and a world class center forward who can play in the right channel (cum right winger) to enhance our attacking depth.

We're close to being a premier league winning team. We're only 12 points off the top, which is not that bad considering we've been very poor during January.
