Agreed but it might well be the case that the person who emerges as a world class talent in that role isn't somebody who is already a marquee name. I don't think Fernandinho excited that many people when we signed him. At best a few people thought he looked half decent but acknowledged it's hard to tell how someone will adapt stepping up to the Premier League from Ukraine. At worst people were fully kicking off that we hadn't signed Paulinho.
It's the kind of role where you only fully come to appreciate how brilliantly someone does it when they actually play for you and you watch them week in week out. These sorts of players don't often have amazing internet showreels that more creative players have.
