and I agree on the part of United not needing anymore wingers, Nani/Valencia/Young are more than enough, they play with 2 and even 3 strikers sometimes as well so its not a weakness
Central midfield is much more important

transfermarkt.de - a primary source for market values and so on - has him listed like that:
Main position: Left Wing
Secondary positions: Attacking Midfield, Right Wing
So he really seems like a flexible player. I think he would be a perfect addition: he could partner a more defensive midfielder like Carrick while also being able to replace a winger when an injury occurs (and as we know from United's current season: there will be injuries).
