I agree. He sounds like a great prospect. Just concerned by his injury. I`m sure he`ll be fine, but I expect we`ll have to show patience with him to start with. Just hope he doesn`t get slated if he starts off slowly!
Remember Rafa said we had money for one more signing before Alonso left so this could mean that we have at least another decent signing to come. The Aquilani deal might have been waiting for Alonso as he already had the other money set down for someone else. Pure speculation I know but that's no different to the papers.
