Man with so many in our own fan base just chomping at the bit to "told you so" - who needs the pressure and drama that will come from the ABU contingent out there.
From a United perspective, looking at our squad, we are threadbare on quality up front to worry defenses or just have any kind of options, especially with 5 sub option now. Manager has harped about it being the right player, right quality and obviously from his perspective he fits the bill. Ajax have already been plundered this season, their coach and players - so they were not going to give up a player like him, so we've had to ultimately pay.
More than likely chances are that he will never end up being what a 100m player should be, those are beyond rare. But, for United to even have a chance at competing for cup trophies or have a chance at top 4, we were going to have to over spend.
Just wish people would stop being so negative and more so get their posts in, so that in a few months come back and say "see, told you he was never going to be a 100m player". That we are getting a much needed right winger, one that can dribble, dazzle and create, something that epitomizes what United are about - then we should be over the moon.
The official announcement can't come soon enough.
