Not that they're in the same league as Alonso but just doubt we'll use any more of our budget on CM, unless its a DM
Sahin is on loan from Real so we've spent big on him at all!!! i'd send him back in Jan and have Alonso anyday
5mil for a 9 month loan deal is a pretty hefty fee, especially for what is essentially a bit part player.
unfortunately id doubt we would be able to send him back in jan because (quote david gold "we didnt get him from argos").

considering we only got 2 mil for carrolls loan and he's an established prem player and international id say no wonder arsenal didnt kick up too much of a fuss.
whats done is done and the lad clearly has ability so hopefully he will toughen up a bit and gets stuck in when given his chance.
it would be a real coup for us if we got xavi back and he would be an ideal role model for suso,hendo and shelvey. he would be a real good signing in the short term which is what we need to ease the transition within the team.
i doubt he will returning anyway but if he was available id like to see us at least interested in getting him rather than sign another one for the future.
