My excitement level will be for the RW and CM starters.
Hopefully the Barry & Delap fees are an indication of the level were willing to move at for those two positions, at the very least.
A Fofana level player for the right would add some...
He's had next to no competition because of the appalling state of the club and was outperformed by somebody as modest as Beto.
He's just not good enough if we want serious improvement.
Another myth. The goals dried up after Xmas when Ancelotti was still the manager. Strikers can have little purple patches. Over time their real ability comes to the core. How many times have we seen him miss 1 on 1s with the keeper. Is that all...
He'll regret that, will never have it so good again.
We move on - we can 100% improve on him.
Biggest disappointment is we didn't get any money for him - goes down as a rat in my book - ran his contract down, strung the club along last summer...
