I'll admit I have not seen him play aside from the games against us, but we are in dire need of another cm, and if our management rates him that highly, we should try to bring him now, regardless of him being ineligible to play in the CL.
I agree. Up until this last week or two i thought this years Scudetto was a done deal but although we are massive favourites and most likely will still win we should spend some cash to leave nothing to chance. A players like him seals the deal. Just a pity he cant play CL.
