About time seems like this one has been hanging around for a long time. i think he will slot straight in as our LB with Milner alternating between LB and DM
As with every transfer (and by "every" I mean "every"), the performance on the park will determine whether it is a good deal or not. I am not bothered by it
only being 10 million just like I don't celebrate when we're listed as the top 10 or 20 or whatever it is richest clubs in the world. We have the capacity to spend, I get it. But if a player bought for less turns out to be a huge asset, that is OK too. How they contribute to the cause is what matters.
I've read some positive reviews on this player by some people whose opinions I respect, so I'm willing to give him a chance. Just as with our big-money signings, if they don't perform, people won't be happy. If they do, they will.
Transfer windows are about navigating through many moving pieces to make the team better. One of those pieces is good scouting. Another is financial commitment. Time will tell.
