From the source
It is fair to say that Andrey Santos’ move from Chelsea to Manchester United in the summer has not quite worked out yet. Santos was a big signing for United, who paid a massive £50m fee to acquire his services from their Premier League rivals.
Ally McCoist recently questioned Santos’ fee, and he is not the only one. The midfielder has made six appearances in the league this season. He recently won his place back in the side after losing it earlier in the campaign.
McCoist believes Chelsea got one over United after selling Santos to them for £50m, and it looks like there are people in and around the Blues who think the same thing.
