Sports: Some Type Of Way

Players come and go, that's just the mechanics of Football. Been like that since the birth and so it shall continue. Once upon a time players who got that dream move to their boyhood club would retire there.

Likes of Maldini, Giggs, Scholes, Gerrard, as much as I have an opinion on this guy even John Terry can be added to that list. Doubt we'll see those type of one player club players again.

So with the transfer window now firmly shut for four months, it's fair to say it's been the busiest window so far with over £800,000 million spent. Exciting times ahead for many clubs that have added additions to their squad to improve the team. But it's one transfer in particular that has me feeling, well "some type of way".

It's not since Becks and Cristiano that if felt this type of way. But since it was finally confirmed Monday evening that Danny Welbeck was officially an Arsenal player those feelings kicked in.

See in football there is no better sight for a club's supporters then to see a local kid come through the ranks and into the first team. It's kind of like watching a flower grow or your children succeeding in life. Welbeck ticks all those boxes in this era of football.

Is Welbeck a world beater? No ain't many strikers that are besides the obvious names. Does he have the potential to become a better player then he is now? Yes due to fact will play in favourite position and consistently get games. Are Manchester United weaker without him? No but we're not stronger without him either. 

Am I mad at him for moving to Arsenal of all clubs? Not at all, because I can see the attraction. Footballing wise he will play in his preferred position, and his friends with many of the British young bucks in the ranks. Plus Arsenal's style of play suits him. So the transition will be easy for him on that front. But the most important thing is, he's in the good has of professor Arsene Wenger. Mourinho doesn't have the ability to nuture Welbz, as Chelsea's youth system do this day only boasts John Terry as a success. 

I must say that this transfer has made it very clear the 

difference between supporters and fans of my club Manchester United. While the fans are just super gassed over the signings we have made, without even a second thought of Welbeck's transfer move. Supporters have not begrudged him for the move, cause he deserve much more game time but are disappointed to see that he has left. 

I hope the convo between LVG and Welbeck was along the lines of " I will try and play you as much as possible, but if you desire to get more game time somewhere else I won't deny you that stage of your career". As imposing as the media make LVG to appear, like Fergie don't think he would let a player of determination and quality just waste away on the bench and halt their career. Other clubs happy to do that but that's not how we roll. 

Read some writer's articles that United have no identity after letting Welbeck go. Erm...... ok let's look at the facts shall we on homegrown players in top teams. Them lot from across the road have one starting British player in Joe Hart, Milner comes off the bench most of the time so that's two. Any others they got? Rodwell bought and sold, Sinclair is only seen the same time as a Unicorn and that's it. 

Arsenal have Rambo, smoking Jack, Gibbs, Ox, Theo, Chambers who start or come off the bench. Liverpool have Johnson, Gerrard, Lallana, Lambert, Henderson, Sterling, Sturridge and Flanagan. Spurs Lennon, Walker, Kane, Townsend and Davies. Chelsea Terry, Terry, Cahill and Terry. Manchester United have Rooney, Jones, Shaw, Smalling, Evans, Young, Fletcher, Carrick, Lingard, Blackett, Zaha and Wilson who are all registered on this season's squad list. With the likes of the Keane twins (not related to Roy)So I don't understand why comment about identity is lost. 

But it's whatever, I wish Danny all the best in his future ahead. In the meantime Radamel Falcao isn't a half bad replacement and this may also benefit the young sharp shooter in James Wilson.

All the best Welbz and show them what you're made of!!
