I would have preferred we tried everything to keep him. The message seems to be that we are willing to sell anyway at some stage
Agreed we now have a shed load of money in theory. However it will be paid in instalments so we won't have it all straight away. Our teams strength was founded on us being a team and playing for each other. The squad was light and needed quite a few bought in to improve our squad let alone to replace our most influential players. Teams take awhile to gel as will ours. I don't think we will get relegated but it's way to early to tell. Does anybody else thing it's strange that our new manager is in a nunnery learning English. At this rate he could just sign Dutch players to make a complete team and then he wouldn't need English. (Don't mean it really)
