For an initial down-payment of 150k, what have we got to lose?
The lad looks to have bags of potential, is young, and likes to go forward. He's a positive player, rather than a negative one.
Most of the top flair players have been small, light and nimble - Tony Currie, Lionel Messi, Archie Gemmill, George Best, Alex Sabella, Johan Cruyff. And the list goes on and on! Maybe it's their lower centre of gravity that gives them the edge? It does seem strange that so many of them have been so smallish in stature. It's no coincidence!
Sign him up and see where it leads!
If it works, we will have a multi-million pound player on our hands in 4-5 years time? If it doesn't, we'll more than likely get our money back.
All you doubters and misery guts, that are desperate to piss on anything that United do, would be the first to scream, "we should have signed the lad up" if he is playing for Chelsea, or Man U, in a couple from now.
Up the Blades!
