Cleverley to pie eaters?

Sky sports report on the rumours that Fergie has changed his mind and will now send Cleverley out on loan to Wigan. I can't say i'm not disappointed, i am, as are quite a lot of reds from comments i've read. I can see why Fergie might think the move will be good for him. After Nzogbia's presumed move away from Wigan there may be a vacancy out wide at Wigan and Cleverley could well end up playing every game, injuries permitting.
My problem is, if he can't force his way into our squad this year when it seems to me and more than a few others that he is more than ready for first team action, how will he force his way in next year. Are we going to see players move on, or does he expect Giggs to call it a day next year. On the evidence of pre-season and last Saturday i can see Giggs still playing next season.
We have a lot of young players out on loan this season, and the good news is that they are all doing well and getting good reports. I don't know how many will be good enough, i'm certain that at least three of them will make it into our first team squad eventually. It will be interesting to see how long that takes and whether it will be a case of first team revolution or evolution, i suspect the latter with them being introduced into the squad in batches.
The three i think will definitely make it are Welbeck, Cleverley and i really like the look of Josh King. For King to have established himself as a regular at first team level with Preston at the age of eighteen promises big things for his future.
Besides those three there is also Matty James who is well thought of at Preston and Danny Drinkwater likewise, this season at Cardiff. Whether they make it at United or not the academy is starting to deliver the good big time with the likes of Ravel Morrison and Pogba following in their footsteps. It's a pity about Pogba's bad injury he looked very promising.

The super soaraway Sun links us with a transfer deadline move for Jack Rodwell with Carrick to go the other way. I can't see it myself, i'm sure united would be interested, but i can't see Everton being interested, having tied him to a new contract and with his value set to soar in a couple of years time if he makes the progress expected.

Ferguson has 48 hours to make a decision over whether to include Hargreaves in his 25 man squad. Surely this is a no brainer.

The proposed bid for Blackburn is likely to come under scrutiny after this piece of news came out, i should think.
