I think Gervinho is more than worth it, he is extremely dangerous coming off the bench and makes an impact in every game, he can be a little frustrating and we have yet to see how good he is at finishing but he is lethal at beating people, can cross and has terrific balance. He's a great asset and works very hard - unlike a certain Russian who hardly moved the other night. We missed out badly on Mata but this is nothing new, we have been reluctant to pay the going rate or over it when needed to get the really important people in and rely mostly on Wengers scouts to keep coming up with names that can do a job but not take us forward in any real fashion.
