A week that has gleaned two excellent results in the cup competitions for United has also highlighted just how important Sir Alex Ferguson’s summer signings have become to the team.
Carlos Tevez got the winner against Lyon in midweek, with Owen Hargreaves operating a pivotal midfield holding role. But it is the form of Nani and Anderson, both new to England, that have pleased the United boss.
The pair have both perhaps played more regularly than that they would have hoped at the start of the season. But their excellent recent displays make it increasingly difficult leave them out of the side.
“We’re very pleased with their progress,” Sir Alex says. “The evidence of their development is there to see on the pitch.
“With Anderson, he has exploded onto the scene, whereas Nani is taking his time. But he is gradually getting better and better.
"They’re different players of course, so that makes a difference. But they’re both doing really well.”
Yeah, this season, all 4 of Fergie's buy and loan have been good... Time for Scholes and Giggs to play lesser...

i think scholes and giggs are already playing lesser. I believe they are more guiding role than the real "pillars". but would "love it" if they score some important goals..
