Not sure who I'd prefer out of him or Allen...
Allen is a great player with a wonderful future. But please. Sahin is world-class, right now. There's no comparison. And one doesn't necessarily exclude the other. I would love Allen here. But if we want to make an immediate statement, we would bring in Sahin. Allen can deputize coming off of the bench. He can play in a deeper role as a holding player or as an all-around CM, so he would be key. Shelvey is a cracking attacking player, so those two off the bench would have our midfield sorted. We'll still need a new striker, and a winger. But how does this look for a spine to our team this season?
