Man Utd's midfield is key to their success

How good is Man Utd's midfield? Cristiano Ronaldo, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Darren Fletcher, and Michael Carrick have combined for 20 goals. This is more than Manchester City, Sheffield Utd, West Ham, Charlton, and Watford. Ronaldo alone has scored 12 goals which is the entire scoring output of Watford.

The rest of the big four, Chelsea midfielders led by Frank Lampard have 14 goals, Liverpool have 12 with a strangely subdued Steven Gerrard contributing four, and Arsenal's midfield also has 12 with Gilberto's 7 goals.

Man u midfield is fantastic but very thin in depth. hopefully no form dips or injuries so the trophy wont be drapped in blue again this year
