Tom Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 Swear this is just a replacement for Hleb, not an actual addition. Same goes with Huntelaar if we lose Adebayor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has not arrived to replace Hleb, but to add to what we have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
