I think KK wants to build a good team spirit around players that are mostly from the UK. The lack of European football means that players who don't have a connection with England are likely to pick other clubs. Thta Higuaine rumour is typical of the garbage that lazy hacks come out with.
I'm quite exited how this team is going to perform. I think we will show more passion and effort. Some of the matches against teams with more foreign players like Arsenal will be very interesting.
Add the youngsters coming through the ranks and we are heading in the right direction.

Have to agree with comment by Aggers Right Elbow (U3402).
I also think that this concept is also what sets Utd apart from the rest when the chips are down. They just keep fighting because of the british influence. No offense to foreign people(including myself )
Please please please let us sign Sturridge.
Given how badly we mugged Chelsea off with Torres, I'm sure they'd want at least £20m for him though.
I'm happy that we're making signings, now I want to see us getting rid of some of the deadwood. Jova and Poulsen must know they'll be lucky to get in the reserves now with the amount of midfielders we have. Not too worried about how much we get for them because clearly the owners are committed to investing anyway.
As much as I'd love higuain, I cannot see that happening at all. Sturridge would be a good option, but again I cannot see Chelsea letting him go for anything lower than 20million.
Ah, the good old myth about English grit and fighting spirit. Is that why England haven't made a major tournament final in close to half a century while the lily-livered, weak-hearted fairies from France, Argentina, Brazil, Spain, Holland etc have won loads between them. Hell, even Greece have managed to be crowned Euro champions. Wonderful logic.
United's success has nothing to do with an English backbone and everything to do with having some of the best in the world in their positions -Ronaldo, Giggs, Evra, Scholes, Vidic, Van der Sar, Rooney etc- along with team unity and a great manager. Having Carrick in the side doesn't give them any extra spine.
Some of their most tenacious battlers in recent years include Stam, Tevez and Vidic. Don't see what being English has to do with it.

I think KK
============================
kevin keegan is manager of liverpool?
Mthierry
to say man us success is nothing to do with homegrown players is laughable. Scholes, Giggs,Nevilles,Bruce, Pallister, Rooney,Beckham the list goes on. Compare that to Arsenal and you het somewhere near the truth.
United always
KK = King Kenny
but I have often thought what it would be like to have Kevin Keegan as Liverpool manager. I would need to top up my health insurance.
perhaps he may have had a few more famous rants if he was lol and i apologise for my sarcasm if u didnt spot it!
