We should have kept him in my opinion. I think he wanted to go, so there's not a huge amount we could do about it, and we all know about his fitness issues, but.....
....60 minute player or not, there is currently a 10 shaped hole in our attack, and having him as an option would have been incredibly helpful. I like Sigi as a prospect, but he's patently not ready to fill Rafa's boots yet, and while he has the goal scoring prowess, I'm not convinced Dempsey has anything like Rafa's subtlety or creativity.
We look an attacking player or two short of the best Spurs team I've ever seen.
