Originally posted by Nicholas91 Saw an interview with Allardyce who really stuck up for AWB and I surprisingly agreed with his analysis. Possibly the best 1v1 RB in the league but ironically criticised for his attacking play (given he started life as a winger). In a flat 4-4-2, with little to no attacking onus, great player. We do not play like that anymore however and I'd fail to see where he'd fit in. Never quite added any more feathers to his cap. I actually think WHU is a move more beneficial for him and I wish him luck without the desire to see him return. Undoubtedly. Utd's error in signing him (and Maguire) is that he is great in a lower table teams where his main objective is to make a load of tackles and blocks. Top half teams need to lean more towards defenders that can play.

Only because Utd have paid off the deficit to AWB somewhere in the region of £5.75m I believe. This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

For a £50m signing and the fact every MU player seems to be on a min of £100k a week i thought that on the low side. I'd be surprised of West Ham aren't paying something similar. Can only think the pay off is because he didn't asked to go and was refusing unless his contract was paid up
