I was trying to think of the last time we sold someone who went on to achieve something. Ian Wright maybe?

I wish him the best of luck.

£50M for a right back who's played 1 full season is a good peice of business.

I'll miss his flying last ditch tackles. Although, I did have a few unpopular doubts about his ability. No doubt a really good player, but he seemed to give the ball away a lot, his positioning had a lot to work on but he got away with it because of his pace. I'd also question why he was so often found in the position where he had to make a last ditch tackle.

When Wilf left, there was a reluctance to let him go, but it seemed there was also some pride that we produced a lad who was expected to go on an achieve great things at Man U. The reaction today shows how far we've come and how far they have fallen.

Let's wait and see how he's replaced.

I’ve never heard AWB. Any links? Is he a bit street, ‘Know what I’m saying’ but not exactly that? Just irritating vowel sounds on ‘o’ sounds?

He’s not exactly Obama but in fairness that’s not what he’s paid for

Totally agree. Good business for both clubs.Gutted he is leaving but too much money for us to turn down and a right back is not the hardest position to resolve. I hope he gets to the very top as it would be great to see another youth product reach their full potential.

Hopefully this will mean we can play serious hardball for Zaha as he will be much harder to replace.

Good luck AWB, it has been brief but you are a player who will always be remembered. Best fullback I have seen at the club since Sansom and when Ashley Cole came on loan.

What's the betting that he'll be named in the next full England squad, now that he's a member of the 'right' club?

I personally think AWB has a lot of flaws to his game and could struggle under the weight of expectation.

He is going as the most expensive defender in Man United's history. Will the defenders there talk him through games, as ours do? Will the fans forgive sloppy passing & positional errors, as ours do?

He's a funny player is AWB. Snake-like speed in the tackle, wonderful control for a full back...and yet, and yet...something still doesn't convince me.

He may well make it. But I believe the Man U fans -- and players -- will need to forget the price tag. I hope they do because I don't want to see his talent wasted.
