And he is only 29, he may have a ****e attitude but didn't M'Vila come to Sunderland last season with a similar reputation?? Worth a punt.
Well I've just checked my history and after Glenn Roeder froze Nzogbia out of the Newcastle team, the new manager, Sam Allardyce, brought him back into the first team and rewarded him with a 5 year contract.
I suppose if he's free and on **** wages then he'll do as backup for the backup. Trying to look on the bright side.
Lad has ability, and Sam has firm for getting a few years out of supposed has verbs. I'll trust Sam on this.
What we have learned over the past year and a bit is that team ethics and work rate are every bit as important as individual ability.. The question is can Sam get him to fit into this team ethic, if so then he may be worth a punt..
