Agree with this. He did have his chance to shine once Ronaldo went though but I'm not sure what happened for the situation to become as bad as it is now.
It could have been his injuries but his ambivalence on learning the lingo or just personality clashes were things he could control.

He has made a mint and won a lot of trophies but I suspect, no matter what he says publicly, he will look back at his time there with some regret.

One thing is for sure though, he needs to get off his arse, take the wage cut and get the hell out of there. He still has plenty to offer and has nothing to prove.
