Pedro: A wanted man<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWe believe that, with such a shortage of talent in their squad in the right wing berth, the idea of United haggling over a few million in a very reasonable fee, for Pedro seems ridiculous.<\/p>\n
The feeling we get is that Manchester United weren’t that keen on taking the player in the first place. They weren’t 100 percent sure. Because, if they had been, then surely they would have got this deal over the line much earlier.<\/p>\n
But now Chelsea seems to be his most likely destination and the rumour mills will move on to who else United might sign this month. Surely they will add another creative talent to the squad before the end of the window.<\/p>\n
We feel that, in the end, Chelsea have got a good player but not a great one. And we would certainly question the wisdom of selecting Pedro ahead of Willian on the right side of the midfield.<\/p>\n
Pedro has won The World Cup and European Championship with Spain as well as three Champions League trophies and 5 La Liga titles with Barcelona. But his inability to get into the side, as a starter, over the last couple of years has forced him to look elsewhere for regular football.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
