What I'm saying Antii is that our squad was still short on quality in numbers. DeJong was an improvement on what went before, and Milner will be, in my opinion, better than Petrov, albeit expensively, and also provides an alternative to a rested Bellers, or to DeJong himself in certain games.
If we are playing so many games we need an influx of quality players, of which this is one.
Being brutally honest, if we want to win stuff then the likes of Ireland (in current form), Petrov, Benjani, Sylvinho, all those players out on loan and untried youngsters who aren't sensational have no place on our field in 2010-11.
I think it's a bit harsh to say Milner isn't an improvement, and I'm not his biggest fan.
