Seems we did well managing him so he was fit enough to sell.
A "few weeks" sounds like there is not much playing time left him in this season

From the match report on Sky:
"The former QPR man, who signed in the January window for £4m, was replaced by Graziano Pelle on 59 minutes after suffering a knee injury. "
£12 million last August would have been sweeter - that would have been the Moneyball approach, and unlike some of our other luxury high earners (Fer, Sandro, Phillips, Green), other clubs actually wanted him.
strange selecting Charlie and then playing him wide. Poor display from the Saints. I wonder, have they peaked?
No disrespect to Charlie, £4mill + add ons might be good value if he is continuing to be a sick note player.
Wish him well, nothing but praise for him as a hoop he was excellent for us. Hope he a long career in the Premier league.
Southampton were absolute crap last night, Austin and Long up front together didn't work at all.

Newcastle offered 12 but insisted on instalments and we wanted it in lump sum. That was only stumbling block, personal terms were agreed and Charlie had number 9 shirt.
That was just newspaper rubbish, wasn't it? Leicester were the only club to bid I thought.
well its an oddity to me
because someone up the pub said that he wanted a wall built and when he got austin bricks on the job charlie turned up with his labourer and put half the wall up
and he said and i quote
MY KNEE IS A BIT DICKY AT THE MOMENT
so hope that clears that up
