Even though i've no idea if this lads any good or a complete knacker i feel a bit of sympathy for his plight. His progress so far has been a tad slow but much of this season's annual shambles isn't down to him so i think he's probably swimming around in circles at the moment.
The reason i feel sorry for him is he's now got himself into a situation where he'll have to go the way of many others and pay over the top or face the consequences. The Borini situation is one where the player unfairly and undeservedly holds all the cards. Even though he's done well i don't think Borini merits so much power in these negotiations, it's all a bit one sided.
Either way, Congerton's head must be spinning. He has very little say or direct control in what's happening, almost at the hands of fate.
He isn't the man who got us into this mess but is he the man to get us out of it?? Has he got enough standing in the game to dig us out of this self-inflicted hole?? I hope so but i'm not convinced, this would be a big job for anyone.
