I have a feeling Brannagan is more the Aldridge type player in this situation. I think you are being a bit hopeful in our ability to replace him with an upgrade in one player, he is one of the best players in the division.
Hopefully we can get a much better midfield unit in though, he is literally our midfield at the moment, whether he stays or goes we need to change that.
Very possibly on the Aldridge type.
