Oh, I know the fans didn't underrate him - best LB since Cashley.

It just seemed strange that when the blogs had been debating best Jan signing all week, no-one even mentioned Nacho.

I guess very solid defending with one goal and one assist doesn't seem as sexy as Leo's 6 goal involvements in 6 starts, Auba's 10 goals or AA23's 4 at Anfield.

But £6.5m to pip Sperz to the CL spot and 6.5 years as a LB we were all perfectly happy with was a good buy. Won us a couple of cups, almost won us the league and part of the best back 4 we'd had in a decade.
