If it means anything, SW, I concur with BGS. He was very good at Sevilla and exactly what we need, to play next to Xhaka.
Instead of you know who. :-)
That's the point; Veng simply doesn't seem to want that sort of player in there anymore. He actually wants someone like Ramsey, and/or Xhaka :shrug:
Or Santi, I suppose.

I think that was the only trolley dash I remember AW doing. George did one that year he bought Kiwomya, Hartson, Helder and Upson (I think).

Don't forget the striker we actually did buy from Monaco that year

Dear old Park The Car or whatever his name was! Of course! :hehe: That little lot more than made up for losing a finally fúcking fit Robin van Persie, didn't it? :-(
