With Depay seemingly on his way to Lyon I just want to give a nod to Ed002 who I recal saying it was too early for him to come to a big league.
Unfortunately he does not seem to have grown much over the time with us. Skilful but not positionally aware.
Good to see the club insert a buy back option as if he does add to his undoubted skill we could yet get a very good player in the team. or do a RM and buy back cheap and sell on for high value!

{Ed002's Note - I would think that the chances of Depay agreeing to move back in the future are zip.}

Probably would have been better adding a sell on clause

{Ed025's Note - just getting rid was a massive bonus mad hatter thats why united refused any loan deals, if he messed up then how would they get any decent sort of return on him?..

Apparently they have included one Mad Hatter.
Very true Ed002 but at least it shows forethought from the club even if it never materialises

I think there's an option of both a buy back and also a sell on clause

ED025 I think your right mate, Januzaj is probably a good example of that. I don't think we will get much for him in the summer; if we sell him.

{Ed025's Note - its always a gamble with youngsters mad hatter sometimes it comes off sometimes it doesn,t, united done well to get the money they did for depay as hes a loose cannon, the stipulation of not loaning him was very clever imo mate..

It's about time we got a good deal for players we sell ED025, generally we've let players go for peanuts.

{Ed025's Note - your right there mad hatter..

I recall Ed 02 saying the move was too early and so it has proved to be but surely having been at Utd for a while now he should have learned a few lessons. It's a real shame because the lad is undoubtedly talented and has shown it in flashes. I really hope he does well at Lyon matures and comes back to Old Trafford and lights up the place
