As another transfer window 'slams shut' I am once again allowing myself a little smile at the thought that "we've (still) got Carey...".
I know that there was no particular rumour or gossip that he might be prised from the club but he is by far and away Argyle's star player and most desirable asset from the perspective of other clubs so there is always a danger that someone will come in and try to lure him away.
I have been watching Argyle for 26 years now since I moved to Plymouth in 1992 and he is in a very small group of players I have seen with genuine flair, creativity and wow factor. These are not the only things I like to see in players but I have to confess that I do have a penchant for watching an exciting, creative attacking flair player (Paul Dalton, Paul McGregor, Akos Busacky, Graham Carey and to a lesser extent in the current team but with real potential, Ruben Lameiras) - players who can single-handedly make something happen on the pitch.
I think we are really, really lucky to have had the pleasure of watching Carey play for Argyle for three years already and now we know that we have got him for at least another half season... (unless there is some weird loan activity in the next couple of weeks).
