Except you know, they probably don't replace the players with one of the top 5 in the world at that position.Yeah, already made that mistake
I fecking loved Danny. This is shit. Now I know what its like for other teams fans when we come in and take their players.
Danny Welbeck | Arsenal player
- Thread starter KiD MoYeS
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

Good luck to him! So, who is now left from our academy who might make it at United (until we decide to sell him)? Pls don't say Januzaj as he is not a proper academy product.And who is there now who really loves United and is also not completely useless like Fletcher? Welbeck and Chicharito loved the club and always gave everything. I would say only DDG, Rafael and Jones might fit the bill. Herrera and Rojo at least already seem like they couldn't be happier. Hopefully we won't have too many players who don't feel proper attachement to the club.
I think given a run of games playing up top he can have that instinct though. The only real run playing as a striker he got for us was around Christmas last year when he got 6 goals in what 6 or 7 games? I know you could describe it as a purple patch, but it was really his only spell as an out and out striker for us and he delivered. I reckon he can deliver for Arsenal too. 20 goals may be a big ask but I reckon he'll get there.
I reckon he'll easily top 20 goals in all competition for Arsenal, league goals might be a big challenging, but with how many chances they'll be creating for him, it's not too far-fetched.
Danny seems like a great lad and should have been here for years to come. It's a short sighted decision which we'll regret in time.
Selling a quality young player to a direct rival is not what this club is about. Were becoming a joke of a club. I miss SAF and Gill
He wanted to go. What do you expect the club to do, build the entire team around him or lock him in a cupboard?
It's annoying that he's gone to Arsenal, but he did the best thing for him, and we let him. We owed him that.
It's sad, but I wish people would stop getting irrationally angry at the club, the state of football, life the Universe and everything just because we've lost a player we like that wasn't even in our first choice line up and chose to go. Drama Llamas.
Evans. He's in a rough patch now, but give him a couple more games and he'll show his class again.

Sshh no tears, only Falcao now
Stop, you might actually make me cry.
This could turn out to be a similar situation with Madrid and etoo (although on a smaller scale as I don't think welbeck will ever be as good as etoo, nor do i think arsenal will ever win as much trophies as Barcelona).
We're going to regret this one big time.
He's made for the Arse.
He's made for the Arse.
Danny obviously wanted first team football, we could guarantee him that. He decided to move on. Full stop. He could easily find himself in the same position at Arsenal......
The club respected his wishes and allowed him to leave for a club of his choosing, glad the club had the decency to at least do this for one of our academy products.
How is it shocking if he doesn't feel valued by van Gaal or the club? Even if he has forced the move himself, you'd think people learned by now since the Rooney sagas that they shouldn't take it that personally and just move on. I'm disappointed like everyone else and I hope United give Wilson and Januzaj time, but regarding our summer we mostly seem to be moving in the right direction. We now have to improve our results. Arsenal still lack most of all a good defensive midfielder and a better centre-half next to Koscielny.
What the feck's everyone blubbering about? We've just got £16m for a striker who doesn't score and bought one of the best strikers in the world.
I dunno, he just doesn't seem like the type of player who will bust a gut to get on the end of chances in the six yard box to me. He's more likely to drop deep and help create chances rather than be the one finishing them off, IMO.
I think he could get close to 20 in all competitions but I'd be surprised if he gets more than that.
I genuinely don't care at this point, he's no longer one of us now as far as I'm concerned. goodbye.
Everyone is disappointed but it is time to move on like he did. We just signed one of the best strikers in world football (if not the best) who could take the PL by a storm this year.
Giroud out injured and he's better than Sanago. He'll be first choice for a while if he's fit, can't say the same thing if he stayed with us.
completely agree. im dreading it. he has something to prove now. might bring out his best. what a ridiculous deal
I'm dreading the inevitable "Danny Welbeck - Arsenal Player" thread.
They have enough players to do that though. He'll be told to stay up top. Especially while Giroud is out.
I'm gonna bite my tongue and trust LVG on this one
What the hell are you on about here? I'm having a bad night. Do you really need to add to it with nonsense like this?
To me it looks like he's been angling for a move since last season.. Good luck Danny, but I'm not gonna shed any tears to be honest.
It's a big part of his game though, I don't see him just stopping doing it, even if told. Wenger doesn't seem the type to tell his strikers to stay up top anyway.
True. Chance are you're right. I just think he can be prolific for them. Time will tell.
Im having a depressing night too and this transfer isn't helping.
Yes.
Well I guess we now know how Arsenal felt when we took van Persie. Except one hundred times less worse but still, similar.
So every player who has left us is going to play in the CL? Bar Vidic probably? Well, good luck to them then. Hope Welbeck scores against Liverpool, Chelsea and City! Knowing our luck he will probably score against us and after ages Arsenal will be able to actually win a game against us!
Will he celebrate if he scores against us? That is the real question...
I try not to cry here. But after I checked Rooney, RVP and Falcao age. I can't. I have to cry.
The bright side is we have Wilson.
The bright side is we have Wilson.
So Arsenal replaced RVP with welbeck who can't get into the starting lineup because of RVP
Gutted he has left, but I think of LVG felt he is not part of his plan then that's fair enough. Just hoping he won't come back haunting us . Falcao must get us into top 4 if not jokes on us.

Why to arsenal? Are we nuts? He seems tailor made for them.
