I don't think any likely amount of money we would get would soften the pill, Gar.
To my mind, Cifuentes has saved us from relegation two years in a row. A couple of million - at the very most - of compensation will be no compensation if he were to leave and we're back with incompetent owners and administrators
Replacements lined up? I'm not confident in that either. Ferdinand put Cifuentes on our radar, he's gone, and he was also overruled many times by the same owners we have now.
The problem for us mere mortals is that to be able to know what we are going to do with the ball next we have to trust our touch and passing. If our touch deserts us (again!) and we can't set oursleves for the first or even second-time pass, the moment is long gone and then all we can hope to do is pass backwards or sideways.
By the time most of us know how to really read a game as we play it, and gain a bit of touch, and gain enough confidence and composure to move the ball quickly, the legs have gone!
It's why most people who haven't played football think it's a simple or easy game. It's not. The best players are really incredible. Even semi-pro players are streets ahead of us mere mortals.
