If you lose a key player which he was you need to replace him properly as results are likely to slip.

We hope we have a replacement but we might not play the same system this season who knows.
I'm glad you saw the logic off selling when they did.There were many that didn't.Off course there is potentially always a down side if you are selling your best players as we found out on this occasion
