    Experienced proven PL winger who was relatively inexpensive, and has shown at Fulham he was still up to scratch. Who knows why he didn’t fit in here but it’s easy to see how he could’ve. Much of the team was dysfunctional at the time, so I don’t really have a grudge. I think a lot of people wanted us to play youngsters over him, but who knows what was happening in training etc to hold that up. The darkest timeline would be a career ending injury to someone like ESR or Martinelli because they were pushed too hard too soon.
