I've always held a small bit of hatred for him for snubbing the US. If you were raised in a country and benefited from the opportunities of that country, then I think there is a loyalty that should be expected of you and you should respect that.
That said, I was disappointed to see him leave United and I would certainly welcome him back. I don't think it's fair to expect someone to remain at a club when they are not getting playing time and are not expected to get playing time in the near future. If we were to buy him back, it's likely going to be for more than we sold him for, which will suck, but it's not something I'm going to have a problem with. He's a talent and will be a factor in the future at Villarreal (or Inter or, perhaps, United) and for Italy (bastard.).
