Don't get me wrong I love Milligan and think he deserves a spot in any AL team. But before this Nabbout & Kokko news we were publicly after a South American #10 marquee and a Chinese player more than likely an attacker, and that's where most people seemed comfortable going into the season. The club has been pretty clear that after NTS it was all focus on the top end of the field. With Kokko leaving, it made sense we are after a striker replacement for his spot. Nabbout leaving, and we're not after a winger replacement for his spot?
Yeh remembered Kanta but put him below those two mentioned. Hence the "lots of depth but no quality" statement. In my opinion we are overlooking the midfield a little when looking at recruitment. Need to replace Nabbout but I'd be disappointed if the club wasn't looking at "Milligan" level midfielders.
