Now the return of Saliba and Zinchenko and I would be very happy with our summer business.
But that didn't work when we tried it with ESR. And we really need to find ESR a role.

When Wiltord was the cover for all of our front 4 in 2002, he played more games than Freddie, Dennis and Bobby. If ESR could cover for all the 3 behind the striker, and was rotated in regularly and always playing from the bench, then great.

But if we've now signed this new lad, how happy will ESR be?

Willian's singing delayed the development of Gabby M. ESR really should be playing all the time.
