Moomba, its a true fact untill CL is reached were gonna get bent over on transfer fees and wages. It will change once those goals are reached. Milner is not worth the money stated, but Ireland isn't producing. Personally as were a work in progress we can't let sentiment get in the way. Ireland has been given his chance, and altho on his day he is world class, those days are few and far between. I'm for one who applaused the change.
Theres value out there, probably our big mistake was not taking a hard line and walking away from deals right at the start.
Has nothing to do with sentiment either, just a belief that Ireland on form is worth more than Milner on form. Milner is not a good fit for our squad and development, and that Ireland potentially could be. But if it involves Ireland or not, I don't think Milner is what we need.
