Personally, I wonder if he will get given the chance - but hes a little like Ayala - a good championship player, but never consistent enough to be a permenant fixture in the top flight.He didnt really cut the mustard in the Premier League for Burnley Norwich or Palace. He may not even make the first 11 this season to prove himself apart from some bench appearances.
And to be honest whilst he is a past player Im not that concerned.
He just scored against Liverpool
I hope so . He was over the moon to come back to us & was treated like crap by Pullis . Twice the player britt is .
Let’s re - write history to serve our story! The bloke was like a rat up a drainpipe out of here after the play off loss to Norwich because he was too good for the Championship. Even had the brass neck to go to the team that beat us. Despite that when his talents couldn’t get him a kick of a ball with the mighty Norwich and Burnley we once again opened our arms to him despite being previously crapped on. You have your opinion on the second time he left, I have a different understanding but bottom line is he done what he always has and always will- he put himself before any loyalty to the Boro. No affection or like for the bloke in the slightest. Dead to me when he mugged us off the first timeI hope so . He was over the moon to come back to us & was treated like crap by Pullis . Twice the player britt is .
And rewriting history ? My memory is pullis only played him as striker because britt was injured & he scored us the goals that got us into the play offs - only to be dropped as soon as Britt was fit .
It was crazy but to sell him to THEM was just an insult. It was a huge white flag to rest of the league as well and I dare say it was to the squad remaining as well.Bad decision to sell him and I said at the time.
