I don't get that transfer at all.
From his point, bar the 500kpw, why has he joined Utd? He likes trophies, surely he has more chance of them at Juve? Utd won't win the league, and probably won't be good enough to beat at least two of City, Chelsea, Pool, Bayern and PSG, that they will need to beat to win the CL. Juve have a decent shot at winning Serie A. So no sense for him.
Why do Utd want him? He's 36, wants stupid money, this could be Sanchez mark 2, and whilst he is quality, he plays in a position where Utd already have too many players.
Genuinely, they would have been better taking the supposed 20m signing fee, the 10+m they paid his agent, and the 25m they are paying him a year, driving down to Brighton and slapping 40-60m on the table for Yves Bassuma (spelling). He is a quality, young, DCM, who would instantly solve the one glaring weakness in their team (ignoring the fact 1 of McFred have to play along side him while OGS ignores VDB) and make them a much more rounded, and better squad. Instead they have so many attacking players even Kevin Keegan would struggle to get them all in one side.
It strikes me as a signing for the fans. Not one for the team.
Either way, OGS has to win something now. He may get away with finishing a few points off the PL winner or a CL semi defeat but a season like last year, even if we swap a EL final for a CL quarter final defeat, won't be enough. The pressure is on him.
