Larsson signs 3 month loan deal but it's not enough..

The great news for Manchester United fans today is that the reds have captured 35 year old Swedish striker Henrik Larsson who will sign in January - the bad news is that he's only at United for 3 months. He returns to his club Helsingborg in March for the beginning of the Swedish season. IF the deal had gone on until the end of the season it might have been enough for the reds, the fact that United were willing to take Larsson on such a short term deal shows you how desperate the club is - perhaps Fergie has no money to spend, because there is players who are available namely Defoe and Bent, so we reds live in hope that one of them signs this January along with Larsson.

The move is also likely to anger the likes of Alan Smith, who I expect to leave the club ASAP. Smith will no doubt feel betrayed given he was told by Fergie he'd play up front when he joined the reds, but the former Leeds man has had limited opportunities up front and of course he broke his leg too. All in all it's best if Smith does move on to another club.
