Realistically. Obviously, as we already have Brooks and Cook, I've no idea whether EH wants one or if we can afford one. But we do seem to need a leader on the pitch.
I think the concept of ‘A Leader’ is overrated. Football is not like cricket where the captain is responsible for on field tactics. If you rely on a single leader it’s indicative of the personality of the rest of the squad. Leadership should be a collective strength which runs throughout the team.Realistically.

Anyway to answer your main question absolutely we need a new creative spark. If I had a blank cheque book I’d go after Juan Mata. He’s still a good age, wouldn’t cost much in terms of a transfer fee, seems a good intelligent guy but wages would be massive by our standards.
According to many on here, we'll be relegated this season for certain.
Do we really want to start employing ageing players on big contracts that we can't get rid of? Is twitchy 'Arry back??
