Never really, in all honesty.
With Kinkladze, it was easy because he was a talented player who Royle wasn't playing and would have been playing for a third tier side. With Shaun Goater, it was time to go, reaching the end of his career and not playing enough football. With Shaun Wright Phillips, I was happy for him to be moving onwards and upwards with his career and going to a club that could offer him so much more at the time - although it obviously didn't work out in the end. With Balotelli, talented footballer going to waste with us returning to boyhood club. I was happy for all of them to leave because it was best for them.
I'm probably going to have to go for Shaunny Wright but when he went to QPR.
