We've historically undervalued our players compared with similar quality players at so-called 'bigger' clubs. I remember the papers creaming themselves over Jack Clarke after playing a dozen games with Leeds (he ended up scoring two goals all season) and was sold to Spurs for £10 million. Meanwhile Bowen was quietly banging in a goal every other game for us with barely a murmur for over three years. Almost like they couldn't quite believe how good he was because it was only Hull City.
Robertson went cheap too, especially considering what he’s gone on to.
I agree with you 100%.
