Definitely not the man for that job, but I wonder how much his seniority won him the nod over Hernandez?
Bébé has pace and two quick feet. He's a rough diamond, but if anyone can knock the rough off, it's Ferguson.
Obertan's (the screaming skull) potential is frightening. I'd say he's further ahead than (one trick pony) Ronaldo was when we first got him. I doubt he'll ever be as good, but he's a great prospect if he can get it all together.
Bring on the Wolves!
EDIT: What's your opinion of Smalling?

I don't think Obertan is anywhere near the prospect Ronaldo was, even when Ronaldo was a kid. I remember seeing Ronaldo for the first time, back when I was younger I'd watch United no matter what.
School nights, I'd stay up and watch the tour of Asia.
I did that to a degree this season, but I used online streaming.
I saw Ronaldo tear our defence apart and I wanted us to sign him, and then strangely enough we did. I was at OT on his debut and he just looked the business. Won a penalty, had the full backs in nots.
But still, no slight on Obertan - if he can be half the player he'll be a good one.
Smalling, he hasn't put a foot wrong.
But he's hardly been up against anyone who would show him up, seems like a good signing at the moment. He's got better form than Evans at the moment, which is only good. He obviously has the talent, I think he lacks the brains but that'll come. He will learn. What do you think of Smalling?
