Regen Carlos Blanco, signed for 20m to replace the ageing Flamini as a ball winning, workhorse midfielder, two games in and out for 6 months. Not too bad really given that Flamini's stats have shot up despite his age, while Blanco's have been slumping - it'll probably take him half a season's training before he starts challenging for that spot again. And by then I'll probably have signed half a dozen new, young Brazilian's to do the job.
