Looking back on last summer.
To be fair it looks like we made good decisions in moving on the following players last year:
Ayala - to Blackburn, injured most of season, 3 year contract
Friend - to Birmingham, 2 years + 1 year option
Clayton - to Birmingham, 2 years + 1 year option
Shotton - to Melbourne 1 yr contract
All big earners but not getting any younger.
None have pulled up any trees - apart from perhaps Friend - mainly in the game against us at the Riverside.
Always a risk who you bring in/transfer out.
Despite our seemingly calamitous recent transfer business (Assombolonga, Fletcher, Akpom) the Club has made some good decisions.
Nice to reflect on something positive.
