Whoever's doing the stats (top right hand of page) forgot his assist.
Happy for him, but a part of me wanted him to play for Ghana
Well if it helps , he's probably Ghana choose to play for HollandHappy for him, but a part of me wanted him to play for Ghana

You both are curses.Well if it helps , he's probably Ghana choose to play for Holland
Me too, definitely. Though at least this way he doesnt have to compete in the ACN.Happy for him, but a part of me wanted him to play for Ghana

I don't have any gripes with the ACN, but i'm biased obviously.Me too, definitely. Though at least this way he doesnt have to compete in the ACN.
So he still probably has the option to play for Ghana?You both are curses.
He's just got an injury that rules him out for the friendlies.

They probably do but they must have an eye on the future after the disappointment of the current crop. Maybe it could just be a case of bring him in and give him a feel of what high-level national football is like to prepare him for the future.Weird call-up anyway, you'd expect Holland to have a few players ahead of him. What position was he supposed to play ?
What other country option did Welbeck have?Club before country.
I cant imagine he will choose Ghana though, he was born and brought up in the Netherlands I think? Like Welbeck in England.
Ghana. Like Fosu Mensah, born and raised in Europe, of Ghanaian parents.What other country option did Welbeck have?
I wouldn't. Would mean we would lose him mid season every other year for the African Cup of Nations. If he goes on to become a top player for us then that would be a pain in arse.Happy for him, but a part of me wanted him to play for Ghana
He signed a 3 year pro deal last JulyHis deal also expires next season, should be looking to give him a new contract.
Papers saying he's just put pen to paper to stay until 2020He signed a 3 year pro deal last July
Jose's going to love this lad
I agree.Screams CDM to me. Hope he gets a chance there.
I agree too. I had read great things about TFM but I couldn't believe my eyes when he got his chance. He's got the perfect mix of athleticism, ability, tenacity and composure that could enable him to be a sensational defensive midfielder for us for a very long time.Screams CDM to me. Hope he gets a chance there.

Special player. He'll be one of the best in the world in a couple of years.
Did he sign on with the Big Bang Theory show...?Tweet

Not sure he would get much playing time at RB with Val, Darmian, and Varela already in the mix. I see him more as a hybrid box to box DM.He's the main reason why I don't see a signing for the right-back position as a priority. It's the position where he can get the most minutes under Mourinho IMO and he fits Mourinho's profile of a full-back.

See the sequence from 2:26 on in the video two posts above yours.
I don't disagree with this but the only difference is, we don't have a good RB, which TFM could cover well.This
I don't want to see him at RB unless we are very desperate for bodies. A central position is best suited for him and he should be rightly considered in the mix. Can't stand throwing players about to become jack of all trades.
Definately. Positionally he looked a little awkward to me playing at full back, especially on the right. He looked much more at home at centre back and in central midfield. I love the way he reads a pass and nips in between the player and the ball using his strength, reminds me a bit of Jaap Stam in that way, Just watching that video as an example he looks very comfortable wining and distributing the ball in a defensive midfield area and has great energy. I think long term he could become a top player there.Screams CDM to me. Hope he gets a chance there.
