Last week, manutd.com confirmed that Ferdinand, Carrick and Brown have all signed new deals. Exact nature of the deals was not revealed, but it is believed that they will keep the trio at the club till 2012. Fderdinand's new wages are thought to be 130,000 pounds a week, making him one ofthe highest earners in England. Carrick's wage is thought to be nearly 75,000 pounds per week. And Brown's new contract means that the club and his agent found a way to resolve the deadlock that was threatening his departure from the club. It is said that the club accepted his wage demands, raising his wage to 60,000 pounds a week.   Rio Ferdinand has been absoloutely immense this season for United . As solid as a rock, he is an integral part of a United defence that has only conceded 19 goals all season in the English Premier League. Not only his concentration levels have improved greatly, his leadership skills have notchede up a level too. With Gary Neville injured, he has been a defacto captain all season. Micheal Carrick is also a player that has impressed the fans a lot. His presence in midfield was one of the major reasons of our title triumph last season. He did suffer a dip in form at the start of the season but recovered well to seal his place in the squad. However, he still has some off days but when on song, he can control the midfield on his own with his extensive range of passing.However, fans are divided in their views on Wes Brown. Many think he is prone to too many mistakes and does not deserve to be at United, while others are of the opinion that he is good enough and his new deal is justified. I think that he will never be a top quality right-back or even centre-back. However, he must be doing something right as he has been a regular of thge meanest defence in England. Players like Wes Brown are invaluable; those who are happy to sit on the bench and ready to give their 100% when called upon.

Sir Alex have said that these new deals are a part of a long-term plan to stabilise the squad. Now the management must deal in other players whose contracts are running out. Evra's name comes into mind as some reports have suggested that he wants a new deal or otherwise, he may leave. Left-backs are a rare commodity, and he has evolved into one of the best left-backs in the world. Mr.Gill must act quickly. Certainly we don't want Evra to end up like Heinze.
