Breaking news: as Manchester United lose another player on a permanent deal away from the club .

 

Anyone who has followed Manchester 

United attentively over the last few years 

will recognize how terribly things have gone. 

Many mistakes have been made in the past

 when it came to awarding big-money contracts

 to players on the periphery of the game. 

Furthermore, those guys didn't earn their 

wages because they were generally 

underperforming. 

Andreas Pereira is one player who 

meets that description. At Old Trafford, the 

Brazilian was once highly regarded. Though

 it was evident early on that he wouldn't be 

good enough to start frequently in a title

-winning team. 

Pereira has been playing for Flamengo

 on loan in his hometown of Brazil this season

. According to all accounts, the midfielder

 is performing admirably for his boyhood club.
