Bottom line is that the criteria shouldn't be: "Is he better than Sanogo?". It should be: "Is he good enough to be at a top club?"
United, who finished three places beneath us last season, don't seem to think so, and neither do I. He's got certain qualities but they are outshone by his uselessness in other areas. All in all he's a nothing footballer who won't ever be half as good as, say, Podolski, who some people apparently can't wait to get rid of this summer.
