If not then the guy might have to sit on the bench man. He isn't providing enough in the final third to take up the role he has had. Would rather have Perez and Gini in those wide roles. Shelvey as I sad cannot stay central so has to move further up. Our central midfield is crucial in this run in. Pretty sure Sissoko played alongside Capoue in that Toulousse midfield in France.
He did but on that same token, Yaya played DM at Barca and he could never do that now. I think with the right manager and some application on his behalf he could do that but i have extreme reservations on that said application.
Also 4m a year isn't really a lot in the grand scheme of things for top managers, not like we massively overpaid compared to what he would usually be paid.
Pretty sure Moyes was on something similar at Everton, money clearly has nothing to do with it. Just seems like a lot because we have refused to pay the going rate for who ever we wanted.
Thankfully, we appear to be more than willing to splash cash around at the minute. With Rafa in charge, at least they will be players the manager wants!
I'm still skeptical about that tbh, if we do though then maybe the penny has finally dropped.
This is what is stopping me being over the moon, it's turned the next 10 games into a nightmare I had completely switched off all emotion towards the club until now.
If we win 2 in a row this place will be bouncing, won't want the season to end.
