If we bring in high earners they have to be worth the wages. Not like Given, Dunne, Bent and Ireland who are worth no where near their ridiculous salaries
Those stats don't tell you the whole story though do they? No matter how much you try to kid yourself Jack Wilshere is a good player and will more than likely become an excellent one.
And anyone saying Dowd fixed the final is being ridiculous IMO. He made an unbelievably shit decision that might have cost us the game but I seriously doubt he did it with any malice.
