we did buy Sinclair and Rodwell because both were English and had potential, I had high hopes for Rodwell as he was a quality player and would have been an England captain but for injuries ` that was the gamble` it should be noted that we lost £ 6 million on the pair + unavailability similar to Delph,
It should also noted that after Rodwell left City he was hounded by the gutter press who wanted him to bad mouth us and blame us for his injuries, he refused and thanked City for their help support and medical attention
