Saha saga leaves sour taste

LOUIS SAHA may have finally landed his dream move to Old Trafford, but the French striker admits he is not entirely at ease with the methods he used to engineer his exit.

Fulham's prized asset is thrashing out personal terms with Manchester United in what is thought to be a £12m deal, despite repeated claims from Cottagers boss Chris Coleman that he was not for sale at any price.

Just four weeks ago, Coleman also insisted that Saha would leave the club "over my dead body," but the player's determination to join the Barclaycard Premiership champions was matched by Alex Ferguson's resolve to land his number one transfer target.
