Still got reservations about this one.
The boy obviously has some serious talent but the Bundesliga is a league where the standard has really started to dip so I think it's very hard to judge players from that league. It's a very young league in terms of players who play there so attacking players probably have it a bit easier as the defences are not as tough as they are here. I really think he needs to stay at least one more season just look at what happened to Dembele jumping to quickly has made his career stall.
Kagawa, Mkhitaryan, Kieta, Aubameyang have all bossed that league looking like superstars and came here and ended up looking good but not great. I do wonder if there's a reason does the Bundesliga style not really merge with the PL style? I don't watch much German football but I get the impression everyone pretty much plays the same style in the PL you don't really get that there's a massive range of styles being played.
The only thing I will say is he clearly fits a problem position for us which is the right hand side of the attack as currently we don't have anyone who actually wants to play that position so he'd give us some balance to fit the 4-3-3 system we generally play.
My worry really is can he handle that transfer fee and the attention that would come him way it's not just coming back to England it's coming back to the other side of the City having left Man City because he wasn't getting the chances he wanted coming back to the red side of the City will bring a lot of baggage. Utd have to make sure he can handle that because if he's a £70m player at Utd you best believe every little mistake on and off the pitch will be headline news just like it is with Sterling.
