Some good points there, many I agree with, I personally think he will give us 6-8months before he just breaks down, thats if he remains fit for those 6-8 months.
Its massive, massive money, but I would like to hope we would protect ourselves in the deal, lets hope, but if not and I know how stupid this will sound, but the worst that can happen is that we basically spunk 26m down the drain. I trust Ronny, hes shown that he doesnt care for ego, if you dont perform, you dont play.
Ive said it once and I will say it again, we shouldnt worry about how much the players cost or how much we are paying them, judge the performances on the pitch. Not the way I would spend 26m, but then and im sure people are sick of hearing this, but its really not my 26m, so *shrug*.
