If Rafa didn't had the funds, he wouldn't have sold bellamy to buy other players. He had to wheel and deal to progress and I don't fault him for selling craig. He went on a profit and we got crouch whom we sold for yet another profit.
i must admit he's sold several players at a profit. which is something we hadnt usually done under evans and houllier.
but i dont think he's the great wheeler dealer some make out. if he bought the right players in the first place and got them to perform....he wouldnt have to keep selling to buy again.
