Man Utd's Possebon facing Sporting Braga loan cut short

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Fri, 09/04/2009 - 12:53

Manchester United midfielder Rodrigo Possebon is set to see his loan with Sporting Braga cut short.

Possebon, who broke into the United first team early last season before being injured in a red-card tackle by Middlesbrough's Emanuel Pogatetz, has played only one match so far for Braga, a Europa League qualifying tie against the Swedish team Elfsborg, and was so poor that the coach, Domingos Paciência, substituted him 34 minutes into a 2-0 defeat.

The teenager, an Italy Under-20 international after qualifying through his father, has been shunned ever since and Paciência has made it clear that he has no future role to play in the team. Braga have subsequently spoken to United about whether it is possible to send him back although the midfielder's agent, Jorge Mendes, is against the move, says the Guardian.

lol how little you know... we shall the likes of Macheda, Wellbeck, Fabio & Rafael Da Silva, Johny Evans, Darren Gibson and hopefully if we keep Possebon all come through the 1st team. And we shall see where the so called gunners young bloods are! I can't wait for the next 5 years, Glory Glory Man UTD!!!

seems like the manager just blaming him for the defeat to me, why chuck him straight in to a european game? I would bring him back and never loan them a player again as this can shatter players confidence. they havent even given him a chance and he is young and in a new team and new league! he needed a few games to settle.
