Was widely regarded as the best player in the Championship when he made the move to Villa, but, despite all of his goals, Fulham were always struggling while he was there. From a distance, it looks like the only motivation on his part behind the move to Villa was money and, from a football viewpoint, the last few years of his career have been a waste of time, but I'll always argue his corner because I remember how good he was when he first came here. I agree he should never have been second choice to a Michael Chopra who was a shadow of the player he was in his first spell for us, but, despite Chops having fairly obvious problems maintaining his prime fitness, Dave Jones, like a few other of McCormack's later managers, did not seem to have full trust in him.
