This. I thought i was the only one. I don't think he's that big of an upgrade compared to what we already have either. Not this 2013 Lopez anyway. But with the injuries and all, it's a no brainer. Let him come.
That is what concerns me the most, we end up paying 9 mill for a dead horse who we can't sell like tiago, thing i liked more about the Drogba deal is that it was a good short term fix, yeah the wages are 4+ mill but at least there was no obligation to keep him long term, but this is an actual investment to sign a player on a permanent deal.
Lets just say LL has a rubbish remainder to his season at Juve, we still have to pay the 9 mill and we're stuck with him. Then what? who's going to want to pay for a 30 year old?
