We have some mediocre at best squad players and we should be looking to give youth a try at their expence. Evans is an International who has looked great at that level and by all reports looks top class in the Championship. He was also great in pre season. And what can it hurt to give Rossi more chances, he has looked good for us up to now and is the ideal man to step in for Rooney when he is injured/suspended or just crap like he has been at times this season. I understand what you are saying with keeping Brown and i'm all for that as long as the kids get a chance but i can see Fergie just using he and Heinze(If Silvestre goes) to cover both full back and centre back.

The Premiership side hit back though, claiming the tickets were of a poor quality, and easily forgeable. Blatter refused to apportion blame, though insisted countries should look to English stadia when considering safety issues in stadium design. “It should be an example for everywhere else in the world,†he claimed. “There is comfort and security in the stadia where everyone is seated and you have no fences. “If this was applied to all the other big leagues some would not face the problems they are facing now.†</div></BLOCKQUOTE> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With United chasing three trophies, Ferguson is eager for his team to be receiving the full vocal backing of the club's supporters. The Red Devils boss has been impressed with the atmosphere generated by the team's followers in the last two away games at Fulham and Reading. But Ferguson feels the same can not always be said of the Old Trafford crowd and he is keen for the fans to turn up the volume. "The support we have received in our last two games at Fulham and Reading has been absolutely unbelievable," said Ferguson. "There were only 4,000 of them at Reading on Tuesday night, but the volume was incredible. "They never stopped singing and were great for us.
