... lol what? I have seen a lot of Holtby in the last three years, but he is NOT a defensive midfielder and I doubt he has the physical ability to play that role in the PL. Holtby is an attacking midfielder, period. I still don't really get this move ... they already have Bale, Lennon, Dempsey and Sigurdsson, and in the deeper role, even with Sandro injured, you still have Dembele, Huddlestone, Parker and Livermore. Unless he outplays guys like Dempsey and Sigurdsson, Holtby might see a lot of the bench.
