Most of the points on this are well covered. In my view it seems likely that JM is more likely than not to outperform PG in EPL in the short term but, given the competition, not sure if that will extend to Utd becoming League Champions straight away. My main concern is elsewhere in that not only does the Club sign an injured player as one of its prospective main men this week but is linked with other injured players or those with dubious fitness records (Laporte and Wilshere come to mind). Now I know that much of this transfer talk is media tittle tattle, but I would have thought we already had enough players with injury/fitness issues – and a poor track record in dealing with them – to fill the orthopaedic and physio departments of a major UK teaching hospital for months to come. Anybody have any views on this or is this not really an issue?
