To be honest i was surprised you let him go, he is the sort of player you need about a club
Will he be a superstar, probably not but he could have given you ten years good service as part of the squad covering injuries, used in rotation, impact from the bench and starting here and their.
He could have been your Pedro, not the best in the squad but knows the place inside out, love it, gives it everything he has.
I genuinely think youth graduates like that a worth their weight in gold and Utd have a history of them with Phil Nev, Butt, O'Shea, Brown, Ole and Fletcher (prime).
They were not the best and wouldn't be in the starting line up if everyone was fit but they are excellent back up players to have and you knew you would get 100% commitment from them. They also generally cost nothing or are very cheap to buy and don't cost that much in wages.
A successful squad is almost never built out of WC player, it needs guys like Welbeck.

Best comment i've seen here today.
Lets not get to far ahead of ourselves in overrating Welbeck just yet.He is still very much capable of the stupid just as he is capable of doing some good things.

Good article, I am tired of the pathetic fans (mainly Arsenal) who instead of supporting their players/team they criticise and are negative. What sort of supporter is that?
Knowing some Arsenal fans they will boo the poor lad.

Rich coming from you.
Support your players. Wish you would do that. High horse.
Wenger said anything on the matter?

I think Welbeck would go on to do a good job for Arsenal. I wasn't keen on seeing him sold but with Falcao coming in, he wasn't going to get a look in.
