Re: Manchester United Champions Thread!!!19!!!!!
The only thing I can think of is that Young gives us options. At the moment an injury to Valencia or Nani means we have to play Park or Obertan. Not really good enough imo, especially when we're so reliant on our wings for attacking opportunities.
He's better than our 3rd choice, and will allow Fergie to keep all 3 fresh. I think that's all it's about.
I hope we do get Jones, but I don't want us to get into some legal battle with Blackburn's rather inexperienced owners. If they want to run their club that way fine, see how many players sign for them over their rivals. Firing Big Sam, going from midtable to almost relegation, dependant on big clubs for loan players...yeah we'll be sure to hook you guys right up after this sh*t. If the owners want to come into a world they don't understand and try to use their learnings fine, but don't be surprised if it backfires.
Put another way, if you were the next Phil Jones and had the opportunity to sign for Bolton or Blackburn with the knowledge that one day you'd want to move to a top 4 side, which would you now join?
