I'm guessing that the directors will have drawn up a list of players they've identified as suitable in different positions and that they will have consulted with Pellegrini as to who he wants us to get from that list
Maybe, seems more likely that he will get what he is given and be told to coach it...
In this strategic planning holistic heaven that we're now having to subscribe to, with Tricky and Sorry seemingly being the major manipulators of all the strings that are being pulled, the thing that puzzles/concerns me is what would happen if the dynamic duo both decided to leave together, for whatever reason ??
Would we have some ready made clones immediately available to step into their shoes or would the whole cellophane edifice come crashing down ??
Is there any contingency plan in place if this were to come about and what happened/would happen at Barcelona ??
