Would have liked to have seen him stay, not as a first team regular but decent back up. Can't blame him for looking the best deal. Not sure where he goes though to be honest. Never going to be a starter for any of the top 10 I would have thought.
Agree about the investment. I would love to see Ralph get proper backing in the transfer market. Three or four quality players that he has identified would make so much difference to our squad. I think for me, until he is backed properly, it's difficult to judge him.
Think after the recent run of games, I'd be inclined to stick with McCarthy. As mentioned, not much to choose between them both, however, McCarthy just shades it for me as he seems a bit more agile and gets down quicker.
