I don't think players lose their talent as they spend a whole life developing it. They lose things like confidence, pace, agility, desire. I hope for Rodwell it's just pace.
Why can't we just sack him for being rubbish at his job like any other trade... oh no, sorry it's football, different world... There you go mate, have 60 grand a week for not turning up for work coz you're sick all of the time... FFS
he has pace? Since when?
