I understand he's young and been off the pace through no fault of his own for sometime but I really do think we should have cashed in on him.
If he doesn't cut it at Stoke, his valuation and reputation will decrease.
Currently I think he's a player with decent potential and a reputation he may not deserve. Currently I think we could perhaps get £6-£8 million, if he fails to impress at Stoke, what's his value then?
I personally don't believe he will ever be good enough for City.
Hope I'm wrong, but can't see it.
Totally agree. Hope we are both wrong but I doubt it. I will come on here and apologise to all those with a contrary view if he proves us wrong.
We should have cashed in at the end of the loan deal with Feyenoord. There was wide interest for him and we might have got around £10 million for him based on his promise and from a club who got caught up in the hysteria of his goal record but failed to notice he did about as well as Jerzy Altidore that same season in the same league - Jerzy Altidore who played all season with Hull and scored 1 goal. The same Jerzy Altidore trundling his big ar*e out for Sunderland at present with 1 goal to his name again.
