Is the club buying players in a panic  |
The whole point of buying Van der sar isnt for long term reasons, Ferguson has bought him to help Howard's confidence and hto hel him progress as a keeper.
It's obvious Ferguson has high hopes for Howard as he has signed a new deal until 2009 and he has let the other keepers go. He has wanted Van der sar for a while now and why not as he has won the Champions League, a UEFA Cup and four Dutch titles and lots of experiance from many different clubs.
