Considering what he cost and what he has shown so far it's easy to pick him as the best buy. But the competition isn't that har dnow, is it?
Borini for 11 million is in my book a big F as in fail. He hasn't scored a goal and is injured.
No matter what excuses you pull out he has been really poor.
Joe Allen is good at what he does, but not spectacular. And he only knows how to do just those things. He has very limited ability higher up
or lower down the field. So he isn't that good defensivly and he won't ever get 5 goals during a season.
At 15 million I thought we slightly overpaid.
Assaidi wanted to leave, had 1 year left on his contract and had already spotted Ajax attention. Ajax is pretty good at spotting young talent
so at 2.5 million it was a really good deal for us.
