Initially massively underwhelmed but I'm now warming a bit to this. 2 years is sensible and a bit of graft and nous in the middle of the middle of the park may be no bad thing. Surely an upgrade on Gardner and we did struggle when Jedi was out. I still wonder who's going to create goals though and we don't seem to have addressed this at all.

Someone who can take the ball forward quickly with purpose and actually beat a man.
I can't say I know anything about Glenn Whelan, for some reason I thought he was Jon Walters but they are two different players I take it?I thought Bruce was a great appointment. I don't think he'll still be the Aston Villa manager in February. Bound to be Jaap Stam or the Brentford manager.
