This.
A solid signing if not spectacular.
United fans are shitting it; I too, reckon he'll start scoring surrounded by our midfield talent and they'll be left with egg on their face. Happy enough with this given the dire circumstances, but we need a CB and DM NOW!!

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?
Can't believe people are happy with Welbeck. My main memory of him is slagging him off during England games to anyone that would listen (Admittedly not many people ).
I'll give him a chance but don't think he's what we need.

Sturridge was "shit" at Chelsea, look how good he became at the mousers.

I forsee a similar trajectory with Welbz.
If you call him Welbz one more time I'm giving you an 8 hour ban.

After having a quick check.... in a team managed by Moyes don't forget, never exactly going to be attack minded.
Appearances 15 (10) 9 Goals 1 assist, shots per game 1.6, 87.4% pass success rate. Not brilliant but a bit better than I thought they would be.
And he just got into double figures 2011/2012 he got 11

Why did Wenger extend his contract. I finally expected big things. Chelsea got Costa United got Falcao and we get the failure Welbeck. He is shit really shit
