After such a seemingly ruthless cull of many of our waste men - either on loan or sale - you could be forgiven for being optimistic...
...then the reality comes crashing down:
Valencia and Young remain in the squad and at least one will probably feature every game.
Fletcher is still in the squad and seems to have tricked LVG into thinking that he's a professional footballer.
And finally....

Is it just them 4 and Fellani that need getting rid of?

Depends on your perspective on Jones, Smalling and Evans...

Wasn't he the one in disguise that shouted "f/ck her right in the p/ssy" on sky sports news last night? It was the quickest I've ever seen him move...

I thought so too, until he ran and - as you say - moved...

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion but I don't agree with about Valencia or Fletcher. There are still a few others United should move before those two.

How can anyone not agree with Valencia.
Seriously, I'd take being a man down than him playing.
Most useless footballer we have in the squad.

You forget Ashley Young...

Am I the only one who thinks Valencia is a decent wingback? Never seems to get tired and at least tries on defense, doesn't make rash challenges like Rafael.
I still prefer Rafael, but if we are playing the 5/3 defender formation I think we could do worse than Valencia. Young and Fellaini to me add nothing at all, and Young has even cut into our ability to win penalties this season from the look of it. Need to move Fletcher, Fellaini, and Anderson to accommodate more spaces for new CM's.
