    I'm sure Obertan will have enough excess head that Tiote could sculpt him into a more acceptable image.

    He looks like he's got quite a small head actually. I think it's a case of there being bits missing, rather than bits added on

    Seen this guy playing for the reserves a couple of years ago, didn't seem interested to be there, but on a cold winters night who does

    will have to reserve judgement - still no striker though

    I once signed him on FM and he turned out awesome, he's fast, has skills and can pass, his crossing needs some work but apart from that what more do you want from a winger??

    Not one to get overexcited about but looks worth a go in squad in place of Routledge. Lets give the lad a chance hes still young. As for Fergie not letting good players go several have already been named on here including Rossi who sadly we also allowed to slip away after having him on loan. Albeit pre Fergie but i remember a certain Peter Beardsley being rejected by Manure too.

    I was gonna say the same thing, but would even extend that assesment to all football montage videos. They truly are dreadul.

    An aside. Who do you think worked their 'magic' on getting Obertan to sign? Hatem? Perhaps he's more effective as an auxillary scout. ;)

    Yeah so much for the AC replacement. I'm still pissed off at our lack of defencive cover and decent strikers.

    HAHAHA
    This <ok>

    i think he needs a chance, not saying he will set the league alight but a Right midfield was the one area IMO that needed strenghtening in the midfield department now all we need is a Striker and Defensive cover (especially is Jose leaves)
