da apostaganha: Ryan Giggs, David Beckham and Paul Scholes are just an example of some of the fantastic players who have graduated through Manchester United’s terrific academy system. I wonder how the careers of the three players mentioned above would have turned out if Sir Alex Ferguson had relinquished their services at a young age. What’s your point, I hear you cry?
da bwin: Well, I can reveal rumours are circulating that current United starlet Danny Welbeck has had his future cast into doubt in some of the Sunday morning papers after being linked in a potential part exchange deal with Everton’s midfield dynamo Jack Rodwell. Welbeck, who is currently on loan at The Stadium of Light, has produced some fine form for the Wearside club this season, including a goal in the 3-0 whitewash they handed out to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Would Sir Alex be willing to part company with a product of United’s renowned youth development set up at such a tender age?
Let’s not forget Sir Alex is a managerial great, and he has not got to where he is today by dispensing of talented young players who have been nurtured in harmony with the club’s ethos. However, if he sees an opportunity to capture someone of Rodwell’s ability, whom David Moyes has previously denied Everton had any intention of selling, would Fergie be willing to sacrifice Welbeck to bring Rodwell to Old Trafford?

In an ideal world I’m sure Manchester United would like to retain the services of Welbeck, and snare the signature of Rodwell without having to yield Welbeck as a deal clincher. Furthermore, David Moyes is blessed with a great deal of experience in the transfer market and if he wanted to deter Manchester United’s pursuit of Rodwell, throwing Welbeck’s name into the equation may do the trick!
Clearly there will be divided opinion among many United fans as to whether a deal for Rodwell at the expense of Welbeck is justified. There will be those fans who don’t think Welbeck is good enough to play in Manchester United’s attack in place of Berbatov, Rooney or Hernandez. Alternatively, some fans will see a bright future for Welbeck in the famous red shirt.
Welbeck himself may have a part to play in any potential deal – if he thinks his future is going to be restricted to substitute appearances, maybe a move to Everton could be just what he feels his career needs? The other side of the coin is would Rodwell, a boyhood Everton fan, want to leave the club he evidently holds dear to his heart? That question is one only Rodwell himself can answer, but the lure of Champions League football year after year, and the exposure it would bring would be hard to resist, as Wayne Rooney’s transfer proved.
I personally feel it will come down, as it often does in football, to a question of money. If United are set on Rodwell as a future signing they more often than not get their man. Maybe initially Everton will resist the advances towards their player, but eventually the bids will increase and so to will the pressure on Everton to sell. In addition, if United are insistent that Welbeck will not be part of the deal I would imagine they will get their way….. after all, we are talking about a world super power within football.
