1. Current Options... And Future Ones
Not only would the capture of Lewandowski give Ferguson fresh options now, but it would also give him options in the future, too. Lewandowski is only 24, whilst Robin van Persie is 29. United fans might just be getting used to seeing the Dutchman play in the red of Manchester United, but he doesn't have too many more years ahead of him... The purchase of Lewandowski now would eradicate the need to shop for a replacement for van Persie later on. There would be no point in buying a new striker in two or three years and then waiting around for them to get bedded in and settled when you can do all that right now. Signing Lewandowski will give him time to acclimatise to life in the Premier League whilst setting him up as a potential replacement for van Persie.
