Bettor.com analyzes whether the Reds should part ways with the talented attacker or not, considering his below-par performances this season.
There’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629; A majestic front-man, with the world firmly at his feet, he
undoubtedly is one of the world’s greatest stars and has a legitimate claim to being one of the best ever.
However, the same cannot be said of Luis Nani; the man who was nurtured at Sporting Lisbon, made his name at Manchester United just like his fellow countryman, but failed to maintain his consistency when it mattered most.
Sir Alex Ferguson is hardly a patient man. But the Scot has shown immense faith in Nani’s talent over the years and while he reaped the benefits for a season or two, the winger has been on the down ever since his proposed move to Zenit St. Petersburg collapsed
in the summer.
Fergie seemingly gave up on the Portuguese star and looked to parts ways with him in return for some serious Russian cash. However, the 25-year-old, was never able to agree on his wage demands with Zenit and ultimately stayed at Old Trafford, hoping for
a new, much more lucrative contract.
That, though, never came into fruition and looks highly unlikely to happen in the future, as Nani has managed to squander the little reputation he had left.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-c9622 Ronaldo’s direct replacement, was unflappable last term alongside Ashley Young and formed a strong partnership on the flanks, leaving their fellow teammate to warm the bench.
Young, in particular, turned out to be an excellent acquisition and proved his worth to Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 during the course of the entire campaign, convincing the long-serving tactician that he no longer required Nani’s services.
That eventually led to a host of clubs fighting it out for the former Sporting man’s signature, but for now, he remains at the Theatre of Dreams, with the stint becoming something much closer to a nightmare.
On the field, Nani is the epitome of disappointment and frustration. Fans and coaches alike, both bang their heads in utter disbelief when the forward loses possession after the entire team has worked incredibly hard to start an attack.
And when he is not gifting his opponents the ball, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nani-c27299 usually tries to outdo defenders with wit and skill. But clearly, he has lost both.
Despite his recent form, the player is not capable of finding the back of net like he used and continues to deteriorate at an alarming pace, which now poses a major question; Do United need Nani anymore?
And the answer is brief and blunt; No!
The club have a plethora of talents to lead the line on the wing and considering how Ferguson has opted to name his line-up, the reliance on play from wide positions could be lowered, especially with the arrivals of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Shinji-Kagawa-c33364.
However, United have a history of fast, pacy players on the flank and it’s more likely that Ferguson will sell Nani and buy someone else to replace him at the helm.
James Rodriguez is seen as an ideal candidate and only recently revealed his desire to join the 19-time English champions, after enjoying a trophy laden stint with Portuguese giants http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186.
“We all know that Manchester United are a great club. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 is a great league but I’m thinking of Porto for now. We’re having a good time and personally I’m feeling fine and am focused on there,” the 21-year-old was quoted as saying while talking to the
media.
The replacement is available. Sir Alex is dissapointed. And a transfer for Luis Nani now beckons in the upcoming months.
