They will have to buy young, and buy lots - then weed out the losers and bring on the rest.Trouble is, both Arsenal and Chelsea are completely driven in this respect too, and that's just in England. None of the other clubs that traditionally have nurtured and developed young talent through their youth systems can afford to hang on to what they produce.MU might be second, but they're not second best - Liverpool are.</blockquote>
