Mikel must feel like hiding under a rock, having persuaded the septics to unload ?100k a week on him.

Has there been a worse signing ? Sonogo Jeffers Kallstrom, Inamoto. Pepe ?

No, from his point of view it's exactly the sort of night he signed up for. A team challenging for trophies, 3-nil up after an hour every week; joining in the fun for ten minutes at the end for sparkling cameos.

Kallstrom - he was a great signing. Scored in the penalty shootout v Wigan. Only league start was a 3-1 home win over West Ham but even that is impressive when you consider how hard we find it to beat those ****ers at home.
Similarity to the Sterling signing - that late in the day it was either him or nobody, and nobody rarely contributes much
Sterling will have his moment - mark my words.
