Whether it's a lot of money or not is besides the point, I feel. It means our outlays are already in the £80 million region this summer when you factor in Tavares and Ben White. We've operated on a CL budget for four years in Europa League and now we're out of Europe altogether. What kind of money do you think is left for a midfielder?
Either Lokonga is it, or we're going to sign up some old over the hill player who's no longer good enough for the clubs that should be our rivals.
