All he learned from him was the safe combination to stick the bags of money they were "earning" from Gazprom.

Really let's be honest we haven't looked any closer to doing anything with money than we were under Moyes. I think the issue is that unless you can attract the world quality players, then your always going to struggle against the bigger sides. If that chance fell to a top quality striker instead of DCL, we would of been 1-0 up. While the offside decision contributed, we still should of scored at least one goal yesterday. We'll always struggle against the better sides if we can't take the limited chances we get.

Top 7, nailed on.

Always back quality.

Why did roma sell him?

Dunno, but i know he was an attacking mid there and at Zenit has developed into a deeper playmaker.

Strong in the tackle. Great passing. Quick feet and no slouch.

Does look as though Pellegrini has come into Romas team as a CM and he's been moved back to DM at Zenit.

Looks epic on the youtube highlights...

I think if we were to sign one player who could make the difference for us then it would have to be a deep playmaker. Someone 'all action' who can do everything...

Neves from Wolves maybe?

He'd be my choice though wolves have huge cash reserves and so we may be reliant on Brandalf to conjure one up for us.

For me, its the key position...knitting together Defence and Midfield.

Other positions need to be strengthened too of course but i think a top DM would be crucial.

He was a deep player at Empoli which is his position. Couldn’t get in ahead of De Rossi/Pellegrini so sold him for a profit when Zenit went all Argentina last summer.
