The Guardian is claiming that Louis Van Gaal has asked striker Danny Welbeck to leave Manchester United. This is surprising, considering 1.) how it’s thought that he was considered higher up the pecking order than Javier Hernandez and 2.) how he needs depth to run his 3-5-2 system.
Sorry, Mr. Welbeck, I guess it’s good night at the Theatre of Dreams.
By the way, remember these pictures? When Danny Welbeck and his then teammate Tom Cleverely were photographed partying, and dancing in the streets of Manchester following their elimination from Champions League?
