Im glad he didnt come at that price. Absolute madness
Contract running down
Injury prone
Didnt really fancy coming here
not worth 9M
Not proven in the prem
The list of reasons is endless.
Does that not tell you something?
To me, it speaks volumes, and it speaks determination to acheive at a higher level. He would have probably been offered double what he is on at the moment to play in a lets be fair, a pretty mediocre CC side.
If im honest, i do think that if we carried on our winning streak when DM first took over, NM would have signed a deal with a get out clause should a PL club come in for him. Since we have lost a few on the trot, Maynard has openly said that he hopes to play at a higher level.
Again, from a honest point of view, i really wanted Maynard to stay and i still do, but i also think (in hindsight) that we should have sold earlier.
One thing i do think about, did i want Maynard to stay coz i really wanted him here, or did i want him to stay coz i didnt want anyone else to have him....
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, should we have sold back in August? Yes, If you asked me back in August, then No!
