That was after he signed, when it was clear he was miles off it. He wasn’t bought for his potential, we couldn’t afford that. It’s been done to death, he’s had a decent career, he’s never been worth the fee we paid and he’s struggled at almost every club he’s been at in a top 5 league. His signing was, and still is, an indication of the issues of Tan’s reign
