We - once again - proved in the superb 4-0 win over a strong Celtic side this morning that we do NOT need David Beckham to play-well and find the back-of-the-net several times to get what we want.

And Fergie still hasn't bought-in a `Ronaldinho´ or `Kieron Dyer´ to replace him... But does he really need to?


One player we seem to have forgotten about is Juan-Sebastian Veron - the £28.1m Argentine midfielder who has never really found the "true form" of his days in Serie A that would guarrentee him the time and chances he deserves to really prove himself.

If he wasn't battling with Paul Scholes for a place in the starting-XI, it was always David Beckham who go in-his-way - but now he's moved-on.
And any talk of a possible £14m move to Chelsea for the "Little Witch" appears to have died-down, also, after Damien Duff signed for the Blues.

Does Sir Alex really need to chase-after £25m-man Kieron Dyer or Kleberson when it comes to replacing David Beckham?
Why not given Juan-Séba Veron a better chance, instead??


And I think that's the answer - and I'm sure Peter Kenyon would be happy to see an extra £30m-odd in this year's bank account -- for once!

We all know Veron is quality. He wouldn't have been signed for Manchester United for any other reason. We just need to see it for ourselves, really. And given the time and chances that David Beckham and co. have had in the United first-team for the past few years, I'm almost certain we'd be able to see the "real" Juan-Sebastian Veron.


Veron to take Beckham's place?
Is it really worth United spending another fortune on one-player with an Argentinian 'superstar' already in the squad??

What do you think?

Well done to David Bellion for an impressive debut and goal, also! :D

I think with his Lazio form, £28 million wasn't bad, it's just that he hasn't been able to produce anything like it. But I have to say, he does usually get played in the wrong positions.

I've always liked Veron, as his passing and vision is superb.

onr thing tht worrie mne as a spurs fan is the fact man utd have an eye on simon davies. With him now valued at 15 mil, and man utd without a right winger, spurs could soon be simondaviesless but 15 mil the richer.

There were a few reports at the start of the week, saying that United are preparing one-more-bid for Spanish winger Joaquin - but nothing else appears to have developed, since then.

Personally, I think he'd be a great signing to replace Beckham, and someone who is better-suited to that role than Veron would be - due to his experience as a "winger", like Giggs.


But it seems like the Kleberson deal is the one that's more-likely to actually happen, after both the 2 clubs and the player all agreed to the terms, as we now await to see whether-or-not the Brazillian will be granted a valid EU work-permit...

I don't really see how he's the right-man for anywhere in the midfield other than in the centre - and we've already signed Eric Djemba-Djemba to play there, so Fergie's probably switched to "idiot mode", once again! :(
