If they both keep playing like they have done then it’s highly likely one or both will be sold to englandshire in the next couple of years so it would be nice if we have the ready made replacement already signed rather than scrambling about and signing an Ojo type replacement.
In the meantime if we end up with all 3 for a season or so I’m sure we will figure out how to make that work and keep them all happy after allowing for suspensions/injuries for who are 3 battling midfielders when hopefully we are playing 50+ games (plus international games) and also allowing for the occasional shuffling of McCrorie into defence to cope with injuries and suspensions there as well.
