I think it's imperative that we sign an absolutely top quality centre half if we are to challenge for honours. I actually think this is even more pressing a need than signing a striker (because i think if we actually play Babel there he might be alright).
Now given our finances, we are going to need to nick one cheap. Fortunately, our manager has recent history of such purchases (Hangelund for 5 mill, Chris Smalling for a 6 inch Subway BMT and a packet of Walkers cheese and onion), so hopefully he can find another.
Masherano will be sold which will at least break "the axis" once and for all and might mean we don't play two holding midifelders when we play Blackpool at Home next season, and I guess Lucas will become our holder, which is fine by me. The conundrum remains Alberto Aquilani, and we'll see what Roy makes of that one.
