    Totally different standard and I think he wanted the change anyway.
    Great servant for us, but I'm not convinced he would have been that effective in another PL season.








    But there again I look at Odobert, Tel etc and wonder ....<laugh>

    If he wanted to retain starting XI form with
    WC 2026 in mind, you could at least offer
    guaranteed starts in 8 CL games, and then
    more sparingly in the domestic campaigns.

    Dunno what money he gets in the USA
    (might be some serious pension fund filling) .

    TBH I think he wanted to leave and he deserved us to respect his wishes

    It wasn't. He was finished at the highest level and I think he knew it.

    Not replacing him was the great stupidity.

    Him and Bouanga tearing up the MLS now. The latter in particular scores some spectacular goals...
