We bought him because he is brilliant,and improves our starting 11.He's also a leader,an inspiration and a hugely positive influence around the club,add those qualities to the fact he's a marketing dream,and an International poster boy,and he fits our player profile perfectly - it was a no brainer.We bought him as a replacement for Bernardo but he didn’t leave.
His purchase also prevented one of our rivals benefitting from those things......i very much doubt Bernardo's situation was much of a relevance.
