that is a side that could challenge for champs league title, imo
in: pirlo, pastore (35 mill?)
out: vieira, jo, adebayor, swp, weiss (20-25 mill)
a 10 mill investment makes us look a lot stronger, imo. compared to however many hundreds of millions weve spent so far, thats value
Joan Angel Román.
Great young prospect, along with assaulin, currently in our EDS.

i definitely think he is the last in the pecking order in midfield, but i could see him seeing out a cup tie. he's going to be 18 in a couple months, i dont see that as too early. is he starting in the champs league? no. could he start against scunthorpe? maybe.
think about the jack wilsheres and josh mceachrans who are impressing right now in the prem league. same age.

I totally agree Pirlo should be competition for Barry. De Jong doesn't come into it and is pretty much undroppable in any even vaguely important games.
