Available on a free next season and seemingly keen on the PL - should we go for him. Having watched him again last night he is still a special talent and extremely fast and mobile for such a big guy. At the very worst if we were to get him in and sell Fellani we would be making a massive step forward. He would provide us with yet another attacking option and he is immense in midfield - what's not to like........
Not sure he'd be able to cope with the pace of the PL week in week out, coming over here at his age. He's 35 in October. Fair enough we would get him on a free, but he'd want massive wages, so could still end up being an expensive deal. Might be worth a risk, but I wouldn't be overly keen on it.
That's part of the problem (or as the press would say - enigma) - would he be up for a windy cold night in the Capital One Cup at Sheffield Wednesday or will he just put in a performance during the 'showcase' games. I'd still get him though, but it just depends on our manager next season and whether or not he would figure in their thinking.
I saw Di Maria last night, he looked pretty good When played without a rigid position to shackle him.
Doubt he'd go if you don't get CL. Then again I can't see him going to City, Leicester, l'Arse or Spurs either.
