As it seems unlikely that he is moving on this window, where does it leave him with the fans? He angled for a move, but didn't get one. Lots of footballers do that. Some have even done it so they can move to Newcastle, so is he a villain or not? He needs to keep his gob shut, stop listening to his agent, and knuckle down and play like he did last season for those last few games. There is a good reason why no CL clubs have moved to buy him. He is not as good as he thinks he is. He could be immense in the Championship if he can get his head around the fact he is here to stay. I am quite pleased it looks like he has to stay, and has to atone for last season's abysmal performance. Not all the rats have been able to jump ship.
