Disagree - we've generally stayed away from established and proven PL players, though, with everything, there are always exceptions. It's why links with a player like Walcott are such a breath of of fresh air.
Agree - his form nosedived in the second half of the season. His passing, in particular, was a mess. Good to see him returning to his early, early form.
Maybe there's truth to the rumours that Gabbi's off. For all the pony about rotating players, it's now the second straight game that Long has started. Or possibly MP doesn't rate Gabbi. Hard to believe that playing on the counter means that Long is almost always the answer.
