Not sure if you're on a WUM
He has a point though to some degree. One of our CBs has never played a prem game, another is probably in his last season. Mangala was unconvincing for much of the season and the form of Kompany is a concern. Of course Denayer could be a star, Mangala might have a cracking second season and Kompany might get back to his best but we're still going to need a replacement for MD next season and we won't know who will be available at that time. if a top quality option becomes available at a reasonable price, I see no reason why we wouldn't be interested.
You're in a better negotiating position to buy when you don't immediately need a player than when you're desperate for one.
