Another player out the door, but how he's worth £12m after a season like that baffles me.

Of the players gone to date they do seem to be getting a better return than I thought they would. It'll count for nothing though when the yanks trouser it and they're left with a thread bare squad and a few unable to shift has beens tying up 90% of the wage budget.
