Actually; although I hate united related threads on this board you have a very valid point. That is the worst United midfield I've seen, they looked weak & clueless today but still won. Why? They spent money on a striker known for scoring goals in the league. Very very simple. I still think that midfield means zero chance of further European success.
Yes they have a world class striker who ultimately changed the game. But you saw how MUFC attacked constantly until the final second.
£24 mil for a 29yr old, isnt that just madness surely not worth it, hell anything over £4million is a push. Wait a minute he's just won the game for them almost on his own!
