Gabriel Obertan has told Manchester United fans he's not arrived to replace Cristiano Ronaldo.

"No, no that's not the case at all. I still have a lot of work to do to arrive at that level," said the young Frenchman.

"I don't know the details of how I will be involved. I will see with the coach. I will certainly play on the wing and it will be up to me to give my maximum to get minutes on the pitch."

All I'll say is never and I mean never judge a book by it's cover
Here's some eg's C Ronaldo,Beckham,Cantona,Kean,Giggs,Scholes,Vidic the list go's on all were not known in the football world before they came to UTD but they all left as BIG BIG STARS so the one's that will come in like this boy Valencia,Douglas,Ljajic,Tosic,Anderson,Arguero will be the best in the next two seasons.Some of you haters will say I'm dreaming aboute KUN and Douglas but I know SAF when it come to surprises he's the best.
Arguero 40m pounds
Douglas 13m pounds rise to 18m on performence and mark my words he'll be worh four times more then his now.
SAF KNOW BEST
UNITED FOR EVER
