No - simply that it is good to add competition

And we should pick whoever is the best player.

Clearly, the starting point will be that the positions are Dimi and Max's to lose.

Putting it a different way, it would be daft to sign someone that is merely back up and not able to compete for a place in the team. I think he'll add good competition for places and if for whatever reason it turns out he's a better option then that's not a bad thing if it improves our team.

        Well we've made a massive error with Dimi if we think that he's now second choice (NCFC) - camcan, Aug 17, 14:53:27
