(That and getting the focus and mindset in the group right).
GK could go either way. We’re obviously hoping that Leno has it in him to be our new no.1 for a lot of years, but if it doesn’t work out that way then I think we’ll be looking for another keeper within a year or two anyway, once Cech finally hangs up his gloves. We’ll get a second chance to get that one right, if we need it.
To be honest, I’m not expecting Emery’s ideas and his vision for the side to start really coming together until the new year anyway, so I’m kind of easy about the ambitious investment until it does...
