Is above average what we want though?
If we look at our team, the only players we can truly classify at or near super quality footballer realm are Henry, Gallas, van Persie, Rosicky, Gilberto, Lehmann and Fabregas. We should be working at bringing each of the other positions closer to this level within the starting line-up. I admit that left wing is the biggest priority, but why not buy a superior right back if one is available to start to bring the average starter quality up?
I admit left wing is a priority, but let's not forget something. Buying David Silva, Ribery or other left wing before disposing of Reyes will only bring Reyes' price further down because we'll obviously be desperate to get rid of him. The late end of the Spanish season is holding back our transfer dealings.
Tell me you forgot Toure by accident, because he is definitely 'super-class'. Clichy isnt far from that level either.
