The fee was £11.5 million apparently. That looks a bargain now.

I remember warnock saying Bournemouth just beat us to him. However i believe he cost them less than Reid or Murphy cost us. About the same anyway. Hes certainly played more than those 2 and scored and created more also.
So had he come here do you think he would have made a difference to us, or more likely hed either be sat on the bench watching hoilet and paterson play in front of him, or playing but looking out of his depth?
A few of us said when brooks chose Bournemouth it was a better move for Wales- its hard to argue any differently now really.

Same as Clyne as well.
Why would he pass up the opportunity to play for an outstanding young manager, playing good football for us?
I don’t think he would get the freedom to play as well as he is at Bournemouth. We are in a struggle and I suspect would end up on the bench
Yes was watching him this morning and thinking what a player he looks.
However i do have this feeling if he came here he would either not play or look poor. Not a criticism of brooks at all.
You mentioned camerasa in another thread. You maybe right but it would be interesting to see him playing for.say Bournemouth and see if there's any difference.
He'd have gone backwards and struggled because he doesn't defend well enough! Then again, with Peltier and Bennett at full back he would be needed to track back more than go forward.
Regardless of style Bournouth have a better squad, far more able to give Brooks time on the ball and a solid base to be on top in some matches. We don't have that. Having said that I'm sure he would have had a positive impact as he's one of these players capable of driving forward with the ball and making things happen. Kind of what we desperately need.
