BaggieMan - Its been said that standing still in this league is equal to going backwards. I think we should always strive to improve the squad, if Saido does go then hopefully we will do what Southampton have done and invest the money from their young prospects into quality players who are as good as, if not better, than the players they lost. Would £25-30m be enough to buy better players than we have now? Easily... if we got Poco, Gamboa and Lescott for a combined £3m then what would we be able to get for 10X that amount? Look at how much the likes of Bony, Gomis, Pelle and Alderweireld went for... No disrespect to the players but I'd be pretty disappointed if the club felt that we couldn't improve on Dorrans, McAuley, Brunt etc.
