sorry I meant what I assume they could get.
The most overstocked position is Winger and that is what he was when he resigned.

I apologise. But if you think about Sts have bought some class acts in the past and have even got players at the top of their game from across the hemisphere (Lyon).
I honestly can't see why sts stuck with Meli. He doesn't proivide a blistering attack, is worse than a sack of potatoes under a high ball and can't defend for toffee.
Practically anybody would have been better.
Alos, Sts have a string of wingers ready to take his spot. Most notably Jamie Foster.

But last night Jamie went off injured. 17 stitches required. So Meli shifted to wing and Eastmond came into the centre, where he was excellent for us in 2009. Eastmond on the wing was neve going to work. But Meli has been looking a ton better in the centres and just this week reported inthe press as enjoying playing there. He has also looked defensively much better at centre than on the wing.
However, prior to his successful move to centre, I hadn't a clue why we had kept him on either. He certainly didn't deserve a new contract based upon his performances of the last couple of seasons. But we signed him up until the end of 2012 and so while he's here we may as well make the best use of him, and that is in the centre with Foster on his wing.

I thought you had missed my point but you pick it up in the second paragraph. Moving him to wing last night was the most obvious move. However, as you say, I cannot see why he was given another contract. Especially when he is still getting targeted for his poor defense. He has never really been the best with positioning in defense and he is obviously struggling more now after a change of position. He often puts a lot of pressure on his winger.
