Then again Hughes did get the best out of him and I am hoping that his "injuries" last year were more to do with a sulk at not coming here in January.
I was a bit underwhelmed at RSC because of his injury but I've just read on another thread that his injury wasn't as bad as we all thought and he will be okay for pre season training.

Really? That's interesting.Thanks for that info.
It was a bit of a circus in January and possibly didn't help his commitment to the cause.
All pure conjecture of course.

One of the worst?!! Wow who were you expecting Villa? Torres? I think we need a reality check here. We may be able to get those types of player next summer if we finish top 4 and make a good fist of challenging for the Prem but not this year. We could still land Eto'o but only with ridiculous wages and that would be disasterous for the team (I still hope a compromise can be made but I doubt it). Who you got left? Huntelaar? LOL

It's in the, "My source work's for the club" thread, about RSC and his injury, worth reading.

Dejong going missing is a bit weird. There was mention of his family not being settled here but I don't know if it had any substance.

We didnt sell our soul or the soul of our football club the day we were taken over by ADUG but we will lose our soul and dignity the day we let our money turn us into arrogant fans!
So keeping ourselves cool and happy about our rise and not let us turn into the Rags we hate is essential!

Not having a go a vbr but some of the posts on the RSC thread suggests that the arrogance has started - I agree with Fuzz101:
