Sigh
Cause and effect, don't treat an attacking winger like a workhorse left back and he might have wanted to stay.
Nobody knows what was said behind doors, he was playing okay in mine and other peoples eyes, he was never going to run up down the wing tracking back all day long but he tracked back 100 times better than Mahrez ever has and still had an end product far more reliable to boot.
We made a **** of ourselves by allowing him to get to the point of having his head turned, he is German, his girlfriend is German and she wanted to go back home and his mother also, some times things just happen.
If he was 100% happy he might have still stayed here, he was far too talented for us to let go.
