Is it possible with us getting Devlin and Drago in that Raskin and Neil are going to be our 8's this season?

I think with all the midfielders bought we're almost certain that Raskin was leaving.

I think Raskin is going, but I also think he is much better further forward in a position requiring less discipline positionally. He breaks the lines well, and is good at pressing.
Read a bit online when Neil was linked, and fans and pundits both reckoned he was okay as a 6 but much better as an 8. As we have too many 6s anyway, then you may be right.

Angus, I agree with Raskin. I'd actually throw Rothwell into that; he would have been far more suited to further forward than sitting in 6. Hopefully Neil has more success than Joe.
