I do think the resale value theory is just complete non sense. United dont sign players so that they can sell at a higher price. I do think if the policy is indeed true, it is Fergie planning long term to make sure that when he leaves United, the person taking over has the best possible state. I am think of it, Fergie will be around for say atmost 2-3 years? The younger players we have now will be hitting their best forms and any new players would fit that as well. Following on from that, I do think Berbatov was signed to replace Ronaldo in a way. I am not sure it is a smoke screen. I do think the resale value theory is just complete non sense.
