He's full of it really. He bulked at the price tag at first and made out as if Man Utd made a panicked decision, pointing to the kids 11 goal record and tried to incorporate their buy with the lack of strikers story he's been touting. Now that it's not looking so much like a panic buy he's saying we've known about this 'exceptional' talent for a number of years but he's a winger-type and we have Ox and Campbell...he also said he didn't think they'd sell, but we weren't planning on buying him anyway so I don't know why he mentions that at all. If we did he'd have fucked it up anyway and have the guy on the right wing perfecting his runs and crossing to an empty box.
