IMO we have never replaced Davids who got us to our best ever PL finish and only just lost out on 4th last day of the season. He was vastly under-rated and we still need someone to do the job he was doing for us.
I don't watch much (read: any) European football (other than the odd CL match and our UEFA games) so I don't know who is out there to do this Davids/Gattuso/Makelele type role.
I don't think Zokora has the aggression, strength, ball-winning skills and ultimately, discipline to do this job effectively. Likewise, Hudd is also IMO not good enough for this role.
I haven't seem him but I assume Veloso is the type of player we should have been signing to play here right?
I know we've lost them now but if we still had Keane & Berbs I'm pretty sure having a DM would have pretty much guaranteed us an extremely fruitful season. I can but only go to sleep now with broken dreams.
