As I say I'm not too bothered if we sign this guy or not - or what we pay for him if we do. All that matters is we get someone in who can play in those positions - once we do let's hope they are good.
I agree with you there but before we reach that point we need to have a full and ultimately pointless debate about something that's totally out of our hands ..like we do with everything.
I really hope we are looking elsewhere as well. Something still rankles with me and I guess its that value for money thing - I know it shouldn't but it does and that's simply due to our history. No issues with Ake and Begovic for example, even Defoe. Brooks looks a real prospect as Lewis Cook did, all astute signings as was the loan signing of Jack and the money involved.
This is a step into the unknown, on a different scale for me anyway. That said Mark and others have said its not the unknown, he's proven etc and have provided a degree of evidence to support their claim so fair play but when Dawson sharpens that pencil of his as bill says the proof is in the pudding. Lets sign him first but as I said please lets learn from the past and not leave ourselves short if it doesn't happen.
