South American Imports to Manchester

After the relative poor performances by Alex Sanchez (Chile) I decided to cast my jaundiced eye over Manchester United's previous signings from South America.

This my opinion of the success rate of their careers at United notwithstanding their success/promise outside of UK. I graded them as Rubbish, Moderately Successful, Successful. Obviously they have had their form ups and downs, most of them mostly downs.

RUBBISH

Juan Gabriel Veron (Argentina);
Kleberson (Brazil);
Anderson (Brazil;
Fabio da Silva (Brazil);
Radamel Falcao (Columbia);
Angel di Maria (Argentina);
Sergio Romero (Argentina);
Guillermo Varela (Uruguay);
Alex Sanchez (Chile).

MODERATELY SUCCESSFUL
Gabriel Heinze (Argentina);
Diego Forlan (Uruguay);
Marcos Rojo (Argentina);

SUCCESSFUL
Antonio Valencia (Ecuador);
Carlos Tevez (Argentina);
Rafael da Silva (Brazil).

JURY STILL OUT
Andreas Pereira (Brazil).

CONCLUSION
On the whole I think we should stick to importing coffee, bananas and Volkswagen Beetles from South America. Footballers from Europe, with the odd player from South Korea and Africa.

PLEASE NOTE MASTER WOODWARD AND MESSRS GLAZER.

Paul Pogba?

I have been a supporter of Manchester United since 1948 and in this time I have watched some brilliant players. I have, though, never seen a player such as Paul Pogba! We have given this person two chances to play for United and on both occasions he has let himself down. A clown of the first order. I'm sure his role model must be the ex-City player, Ballotelli!

Can this person ever match up to Manchester United men such as Carey, Cockburn, Colman, Styles, Crerand, Robson, Keane, or fellow country men, Blanc or Cantona? I have enjoyed watching some good players and real men down the years.

If he continues his childish behavior, please United, let him continue it elsewhere.
