United's nervous breakdown

A good piece from Hugh Mcllvanney.

Two things really worried me about the other night, the realisation that we really need to find a successor to Paul Scholes in midfield and the form of Vidic. When you pit that performance next to the nightmare he had against Torres in the disaster at old trafford you have got to start worrying about Vidic. One night mare you can write off, but two ? Having seen that first goal a couple of times since wednesday, his part in it just looks worse and worse. Thinking on, we haven't really played well against the top teams all season. Only Chelsea at home when they were in free fall and Arsenal in the semis when they had no defence. There is definitely work ahead in the summer. Idon't think we have the money to splah out with the debt and the credit crunch situation and i would sooner the future came through the ranks anyway. But unless Petrucci is the answer i can't see where the next Scholes is coming from.
