but that final made him think he is *the* #9, when really he isn't. That fifteen game scoreless streak is what Deco should point to for negotiations.

I don't think he is starting #9 material, especially when compared to lewandowski the last few seasons. he is a good bench player, but nothing more. i think there is still good value for a back-up if he leaves for PSG. the issue is the actual #9 role. This market is fugazi.

Back to the board
