We will have to wait and see, but he appears to be a 3 - 4m kinda player, hopefully a lot more after a while. He has not got any worse just because we only paid a third of that. A potential bargain at 1.2m. If we had 3-4m to spend, we can now go and find another one.
Spot on. Getting someone like Rhodes in on obscene wages may well have changed the team dynamic completely in a massively negative way. It is the team spirit that has been our best asset so far this season. I have no idea about the setup at Blackburn, but having this 9m striker on massive wages...
Just watched the intro film on Player. If he is a winger, he spends a hell of a lot of time up front in the middle. Play him next to Bobby, he will score some goals. Fingers crossed of course.
