Our summer recruitment in 2013 is looking like an absolute disaster. £70 Mil for Navas, Jovetic and Fernandinho. Not good enough.
Begiristain has a lot prove in the transfer market for me. He also needs to earn his crust as Director of Football. I'm not sure what his exact remit is but it's high time someone 'directed' our manager to a more flexible tactical approach and gave him some 'direction' with regards to how predictable our playing style has become.
As for Soriano, he appears to have done well commercially, although it's harder to gauge his performance.
