It’s one thing picking up Hucks languishing in Man City’s reserves

It’s another getting someone who’s so far down the pecking order at a club which really isn’t any better than ours

So I think it was perfectly reasonable to go “meh”, and “meh” has in fact turned out to be a pretty accurate assessment
