Possebon Loan ‘Cancelled’; Returns to United?
If reports in the Portuguese media are to be believed Rodrigo Possebon, who was loaned out to SC Braga, has returned to Manchester. Google translate is not the best, but according to this link, he’s been axed because of a squad trimming exercise by the coach.
I also saw it mentioned on the United Youth site in its roundup of our loanees. It’s a bit surprising it hasn’t been mentioned in the main United website.
Anyone who has any updates on this, do share in the comments.

I read it on the Youth site too. He is not in any of the squads for nor, maybe go out on loan here? The way we are going we could use him too!

I think Dan called this one in saying he simply isn’t good enough, looks like he was spot on.

@Red Ranter: There is somewhat of a difference in saying he sounds like he is not good enough and constantly picking holes and calling the player names regardless of what he does, also I am not one for getting on players backs.

@Stephen: I know my youth prospects
Its a shame really, but if im honest, hes a poor mans carrick, with good shot on him.

Check out the Sun! Fergie comments on our three young signings Ljajic, Obertan and Mame Diouf. You can tell he expects big things from them especially Obertan! Apparentely Obertan has been carrying a back injury the last eighteen months which might explain his dip in form. Granted all those players are a year or two away from breaking into the first team but it makes the future a bit more exciting.

@Dan: He may be a poor man’s Carrick (he does has better technique on the ball), but he’s still way better than present-day Carrick!
AND he’s much more a complete player than a certain Darron Gibson, he who defines the term “one trick pony”

@NicoQB: No, no and no.
Possebon isnt good enough to lace carricks boots, and im talking about the carrick of today. Hes amazingly average.
Hes not a complete player in the slightest either, he cant defend for shit, hes a side ways passer, and has a decent shot on him, gibson is a much better attacker, defender, and has the best shot at the club let alone possebon. Gibson is far more a complete player then possebon.

@Dan: Just take your comment and reverse Possebon for Gibson, and you get the actual truth!
Ok, fair enough for Gibbo’s shot, but
Stat: Gibson – Possebon
Shooting 10 – 8
Playmaking 5 – 7
Presence 5 – 6 (they both should take stock from Fletch)
Defensive Mid 6 – 6
So that’s basically my opinion of both players. Room for improvement for both, but Possebon actualy looks the better Central Midfielder.
But I do agree that Possebon did not regain the form of before his injury, but then again, he did not have much game time.

@Dan: I’ll gladly hold up my hands and admit defeat when I see those famed “other parts of Gibson’s game” that you’ve been talking about.
But until now, and I think I’m not alone in my view, I think that Gibson is the one who is amazingly average except for his golden shot.

Honestly, Possebon is a poor mans carrick, he cant defend, he doenst pass forward, theres so many things wrong with him.
If his name was poilet, and was english, he would not be rated as highly.

On manutd.com:
“Do the players read what you write about them on ManUtd.com, United Review and Inside United and have any of them ever been unhappy with something you’ve written?”
Good question. The players read the programme on matchdays and copies of the magazine get sent to the training ground. Darren Fletcher asked me once how my fitness work was going after we’d done a feature in there with United’s fitness coaches. So they do read what we write…”
So they read that biased, partisan and soft-soft stuff on the official media outlets? Maybe a few of them do read more daring and challenging opinions on the web. Why not?

@Dan: Loan players are always the odd wheel in a chariot – to quote a well known french expression.
They are always deemed surplus, as would attest Rossi and Campbell, and often clubs having a certain stature will be reluctant to give them game time at the expense of more established players.
That’s why loans should only be made with “small” clubs.
I would reserve judgement as to what happened to him during his loan spell for now.
Also, I find it disappointing how many here seem to have short and selective memories. When Possebon got game time, he performed wll and showed promise. Now we’ve not heard of him for a while and he’s suddenly turned crap. Reminds me of the stories of many other United players who are deemed as crap when they have not got the chance to show their worth – Nani, Foster…

Gibson in my opinion is better than Possebon and you will see very soon he will be in Fergie’s plans more and more.. and soon to be ahead of Carrick (which isn’t dificult, given his form of late).. Fletcher is the main man in midfield now.. Anderson needs to do more but obviously has the talent to be one of the best in the world.. And Hargreaves will be back soon and in my opinon our best midfielder by a mile!! Hope he stays fit though because he could help us win honours this season and also grab a few goals from free kicks!

The difference mate, spurs and newcastle are bigger then braga, but they never cancelled their respective loan deals, braga did.
Possebon has been average from more or less day one. Maybe he just never settled in england, or maybe the scouts just got it wrong.

@NicoQB: Chelsea have been convicted of tapping up this kid Kakuta, a really good young French striker, and getting him to break his contract in France. Kakuta himself is banned for 4 months, and fined £140,000 and Chelsea are BANNED from registering players for the next 2 transfer windows and fined £700,000. I’m kinda liking this new hardline FIFA. First Eduardo, now this!

If Chelsea are banned from signing players, and such a RIDICULOUS amount of time of the Ban, then I wonder once again if this is a FIFA against the English premiership again.
. WTF can R Madrid get away with it, and what will happen now with the Everton and other clubs where Man City breaking of rules is concerned. Nearly every new City player apart from CARLA, have been induced to BREAK AN ESTABLISHED CONTRACT!

. Chelsea were in fact the last team to be hit by the English FA weren’t they?, and were fined heavily and deducted 3 points. I hope that City is dealt with in exactly the same way. Everton should push for a judgement on the way City tapped and TRAPPED Lescott so publically, and the same with all the players, except for CARLA funnily enough, because they knew they would get a hammering from UNited, who have always said that they will NOT do their business transactions thru the media.

Chelsea were talking about reporting City for tapping up Terry so ferociously, and talking publically about their player.

Fergie really has a way of dealing with youth that should send a message to youngstars that united is not a place for them anymore.Last season,Nani was always on the bench and fans thought it was because of his decision making and poor play,this season he plays and he has been good and people look at him and say he has improved but what they ignore is that the stats have been constant.
This season,the indication is that Anderson has gone backwards and thats why he is on the bench and his displays have been average.What they forget is that these two havent starsted playing at United,they were actually stars in their teams and were scouted over a long period hence the huge transfer fees paid.
The simple fact is no player however great can play in spats and perform very well whenever called upon once in a blue moon.Fans talk about the midfield of becks,scholes,giggs,keane and butt as one of the best in the world at the time but ignore the fact that much as they dominated england,they were mediocre in Europe apart from 99 they had no o0ther highlight to talk about.
The Possebon ,De leat,Tossic scenario pops in mind.Either our scouting network is so poor,or we are ruining yuongstars’ future by buying them keeping them in reserves with no hope of ever playing for this club however hard they try. What does a person like De leat have to do to get respect from all involved at OT?
