Six players who should leave Manchester United this summer

Football fans around the world recently found out that Manchester United captain Vidic has decided to leave the club this summer. Reason for him leaving are valid as he has won everything with United ( Apart from FA cup). He has won a total of 15 trophies during his 8 year stay and will always be regarded as one of the greatest Center Backs to play for Manchester United. Even though Manchester United could have kept him for one more season at least but I feel the time has come where they needed a change in the back of there defense. Vidic has past his peak and he cannot replicate his form of 2008-2009 or 2010-2011.

With Moyes rebuilding his squad he needs to sell some of his players. He needs to first sell off the deadwood’s and then start buying quality replacement for them. I will not be including reserve players like Macheda or even Bebe. This list will only include players who have played for Manchester United this season, So lets start-

Rio Ferdinand

Along with Vidic, Ferdinand has been one of the best Center back for the last decade to have played for Man united. But this season has been a disaster for Ferdinand. He has hardly played for the club this season. It seems Moyes does not have Rio Ferdinand in his plan. I expected a lot from Ferdinand this season not only on field but also off field as this was the first season for the New Manager. Honestly Ferdinand has disappointed on both fronts. It seems he hardly cares of the current position of his club, He is more busy with his Twitter. He has been a great Servant for the club but time has come where he is sold . Ferdinand could go and play in US. It will also free wages.

Ashley Young

I was shocked when I got to know that Sir Alex thought Ashley Young was going to be the replacement for Ryan Giggs. I have to say players like Young epitomizes the current position of Manchester United, Mediocrity. To be fair to Young he always gives his best but the problem his best is not good enough for the club like Manchester United. Its very surprising that Young still gets the Nod ahead of Kagawa or Zaha ( who has been sent on loan). I would prefer to see a Lingard play than a Young. Young should be sold and like in the case of ferdinand United can free up wages by selling Young.

Anderson

He has already been sent out on loan and has also lost his shirt number to Mata. His time with United is all but over. I always feel sad when I think about Anderson, he was a player who once was compared to Ronaldiniho , he was the player who scored the penalty in the finals on champions League at the age of 19. But he never fulfilled his potential. I feel he has to take the blame for it. He had a very relaxed attitude and didn’t work hard. He could have been easily like Ramires of Chelsea or even better. I hope he has a good future at which ever club he plays.

Alexander Buttner

It is a shame that it was Fabio rather than Buttner who was sold. Buttner is another player who describe the current position of Manchester United. The boy cannot defend. If you think Evra is bad at defending then you need to see buttner in action. He is another Oberton type of buy, a player who was never ever good enough for us. I hope Moyes doesn’t make him the successor of Evra. Moyes should give chance to academy players rather than select Buttner. A replacement is needed.

Ryan Giggs

I think time has come for Giggs to retire. Its not like he has been playing regularly but I feel giggs should not continue playing. Manchester United fans love and respect Giggs, He still has class but I feel he should hang his boots up. The game time he gets should go to a Lingard or Zaha. I hope Giggs becomes the coach of the youth academy team. He can offer a lot. Its a shame people say Giggs is playing for records.

Antonio Valencia

The last player in my list will be Valencia. Some may be surprised but I feel he cannot be fit into the Starting XI as he cannot link up with Mata , Kagawa and Januzaj. If United play with Valencia in the side then they have to play a 4-4-2 formation which honestly is bad for the team. Valencia is a one footer and can only play in Right hand side , this makes the formation very rigid. This is where players like Nani can be good as he is more versatile and can interchange position. Valencia’s crossing has also become poor. He crosses one good ball in ten attempts and this has badly cost Moyes and his team. I know it would be very highly unlikely that Moyes sells Valencia but for the benefit of the club he needs to sell.

These will be the six players I can see leaving the club. I could have included Evra, Nani, Kagawa and hernandez in this list but I feel all of them have something to contribute. Manchester United cannot sell Evra as Vidic and Rio Ferdinand will be most probably leaving. Moyes will need experience players. It wont be right to sell so many players at once. Nani can still be very useful, like I said he is versatile and deserve to stay. Same with Kagawa and Hernandez.

Let us see who all follows Vidic. One thing is for sure the change has begun at Old Trafford.
