I’m training Rui P to go the MR thing, and I have my loanee Irish guy, I don’t think either are my best option post-Lansbury.

What’s available in 6 months?

Holy crap. I may have just found my permanent Hojbjerg replacement. Imbula was a great fix, and has been doing solid stuff. But this guy feels like Hojbjerg. Argentinian Martin Valentini, 20 years old. I make an offer right now for Valentini.

I need to make a decision about the MR/Lansbury question. I could try to bring in, off a free, younger Scottish guy Ryan Gauld. He’s strong stuff. Our scouts think he’s fully developed. But he’s better than Lansbury in many ways.

Okay, I found my guy, and he’s coming off a contract in 6 months – Michael Schaap, for Barcelona, 21 years old, worth 5 m right now, and I’ve made him a pretty sexy deal to come and be my stud on the MR side of life. If I can get him, get ready to hold onto your butts.
