    Late bloomer. It would be a bit of a risk but we should take it.

    Would tend to agree, but at 26 would still hold opportunity for resale value. £3m and presumably low wages means it's a very low risk and unlikely to make any big loss.

    26 is literally the perfect age.

    I don't know anything about him tbh, but if he's only costing £3m then it might be worth the risk depending on his history.

    17 goals is a good amount from midfield. How has he done in other seasons?

    Never seen him play, looking at his stats though, 110 games and just 16 goals for Celta, but this season for Rayo he has 17 in 39. Maybe he's changed positions or just progressed a lot. As a midfielder as well, not easy for world class players to get in the Spanish side.

    But this isn't the most important for a midfielder. Of course, great if someone scored from midfield, but most of the time it's not so easy. His game would be more interesting, but I also don't know anything about him.

    They built the team around him this season. He's a good player and you can't really go wrong for that price.

    He's creative and knows where the goals are.

    TFIA TEAM STANNIS!

    Seen this guy play a couple of times in La Liga, and he looked the stand-out player in the Rayo team on both those occasions.

    However, I don't know enough about him to judge whether or not he is the right signing for the team.

    Why?

    Xavi
    Iniesta
    Fabregas
    Silva
    Navas
    Alonso
    Mata
    Thiago


    I'd say that's part of the reason why.
