I think Fabio will make it at United but it will probably be a J'Oshea type of story. Crucial squad player but wouldn't really be picked if the full squad was fit.
It all depends on wether he can prove himself before we splash big on an Evra replacement or Buttner takes the spot. Buttner is probably 2 years away from being anywhere near a first choice left back. He's shown promise but nothing in his bag that Fabio doesn't have.
Good to see that I am not the only one worried about his limited abilities defensively. I was beginning to feel a little dispaired on this issue.
If MUFC want to achieve, and continue to achieve, at the level I think they do, then they will need a much better defender in this position than they currently have.
Don't get me wrong I think he may make a fine squad player - but more often than not on the wing. And he is exciting to watch. Sometimes, though, it is the wrong kind of 'excitement'. One based more on fear.
