Yes,fantastic little player. Very unsung,I bet every defence he plays in front of,loves him as he breaks up so many attacks and so calm on the ball. I know football is all about opinions,but when I see Xhaka playing for Arsenal and cost £30 million,well to answer your question,yes he is worth £15 million.

Major fook up not signing him . Yanks missed a huge chance to get the supporters onside with a marquee signing, Mesa looks like he could be very good but with Joe we knew exactly what we were going to get, the biggest no brainer zero risk signing we could ever make was Joe Allen .

Last year we paid the same £15m for a Spanish striker that did not fit our style and contributed nothing. And we did not grab Joey and make him captain. Unfecking-believable.

Joey is still improving, look at his goals.

We could have had him for a lot less before the Euros but for the arrogance/stupidity of our self-appointed fûckwit of a DoF.

True, but Conky was busy at that time, courting the yanks and hiding things from the Trust mun.

We shouldn't all be tarred with the same brush you know!

imagine a midfield three of him, Mesa and Carroll

Having said that I doubt we would've signed Carroll in January if we got Allen 12 months ago - purely because our midfield would've been functioning a hell of a lot better with Allen dictating play there, even under BB

I agree with that- to an extent. I think it's become a way of highlighting the blundering management of the club over the past 3 seasons and its clear failure to push on. Some may argue that investment went to the right place- the Academy and other trading facilities but this was small feed in relation to keeping the playing staff competitive rather than perpetual battlers against relegation- which is what we've become. For all the apparent positives about the new owners rejecting offers for our players- there has been no real investment in players- Mesa for Cork hardly dented their wallets did it? There is an undercurrent of unease that the Allen issue continually feeds off.

Great idea. Lets bury our heads in the sand and have no debate.

Probably the fact that a Swansea produced player tore up the Euro's,was in such a stark contrast to what the multi million pound Academy has produced. Although in fairness Falkirk are delighted.

Pretty much sums it up.

How that absolute cretin is still employed by this club I'll never know.

Yes, I can. Lightweight and being bullied. Plenty of height in the box for attacking and defending corners too!!

Absolutely. It's a debate worth having, but we've had it over and over
