£16m for the one goal in ten man - the worst fucking signing since Silvestre and a criminal waste of the money the fans give to the club
Absolutely disgusted - a panic buy to rival Santos and Park - just even more expensive
not sure about your maths – last season 10 from 36 for United, and 8 from 26 for England, usually playing out of position for both.
CentreTransfer: Falcao – £350k per week
Rooney – £300k per week
Di Maria – £250k per week
Van Persie – £220k per week

Mate his first touch is awful. I watched a manc game other day as had a horrible feeling we'd be in for him. His first touch is shit, his passing and vision is shit, and his finishing is worse than shit.
He has pace but other than that I fail to see how he improves the team. Not going to look it up but has he ever got into double figures in a season?
Err...he replaces Sanogo up front. Good deal. Although same price as balotelli I know who I would rather have...
Just because he replaces Sanogo doesn't mean it's a good deal. Much better strikers have moved clubs this summer and we have settled for a average yet again.
When sky went to the Grove and said we wasn't signing welbeck it's the first time I've ever seen fans cheering a non signing!! The reporter even had to move inside as it's such an unpopular signing.
I honestly hope I'm wrong and will happily eat my words if the kid makes it...but I wouldn't bet on it.
Fair to say that he is far from the marquee signing that we all wanted but he is a current international and likely to be a marked improvement on the postman.
We should at least give him a chance before we hang him out to dry. Manure fans know him better than us and they're gutted about him going. Maybe a move will be good for him and for us.

If 53 yr old ex spud Mark Falco turned out for Manure I would be pissing myself laughing and deffo not sad.....
WTF dont people get with faclo? He's not dropping his salary by a penny and you think we can afford to pay that kind of wonga? United have gone flippin desperate and have enough cash reserve to pay for that...mark my words it is a massive gamble.

That's the spirit.....
ONE DANNY WELBECK.....THERE'S ONLY ONE DANNY WELBECK
An absolute snip at £16m....same price as Ballotelli. Bet the Mousers are gutted they signed a piece of shit like that when they could have had proven goal machine class in Welbeck
As for 1989's comments - Sturridge was nowhere near shit at Chelsea - he couldn't get into a title winning side that had players like Drogba at the top of his game. Welbeck could barely get a kick when agent Moyes was turning Utd into Chumps and barely gets a kick for an Ingerlund side at their lowest UEFA ranking in more than 20 years. Get a grip - he's fucking shite.....and for £16m expensive shite.
