He's exactly the kind of player we don't need to sign. Our current first team is sitting at 6th and may well end in that position. We need to sign players who are better than our first team, or have the potential to push our first team players so they are fighting for their place and hopefully improving. The Ox is a decent player, but he's neither of those things. Signing him isn't going to put us in a position to demote Miki, Mata or Martial and he isn't good enough to put them under pressure for their place, forcing them to improve their game.
He could be great at Spurs or Liverpool or Everton where he'll be better than the current players in his positions. Also i appreciate that two out of three of those teams are higher than us in the league, but I think their best players in midfield are in central areas, not wide areas.
