Brown denies Manucho reports
-
Hull boss Phil Brown has denied reports that club is set to make a bid to sign Manucho on a permanent basis. The Manchester United striker, 26, joined The Tigers on loan in January and has scored two goals in his eight appearances so far for the club.
There had been claims that Hull would look to complete a permanent deal for the Angolan, but Brown says he will not make any decisions until the summer.
“There is nothing in that from our point of view,” he said.
“He is on loan and we will see how it goes at the end of the season.
“There are a plethora of great strikers playing in Manchester United’s reserves at the moment and Manucho was struggling to get in there.
“As far as we are concerned, he is just starting to show signs he can play at this level and, more importantly, score goals.
“The more games he plays, hopefully the more goals he will score. He has got a big part to play in the game [at Sunderland] on Saturday, that is for sure.”

Stay at Hull, with Macheda, Welbeck and Campbell around, you don't stand a chance
-
Remember Fergie tried to go for Adebayor? I think they couldn't get him and thus signed Manucho instead...
-
We don't need you.
-
just stay at hull lah.
-
the report says hull don't want him, not he don't want hull...

He hasn't impressed leh.. unlike campbell on loan.. welbeck scoring a few goals as sub.. and Macheda entering with a bang..

Firstly what is it that Manucho that Fergie go and buy him in the first place? reminds me of Dong Fang Zhuo, who was bought and then loaned to feeder club. what happened next? he was released...
