Yes. We couldn't quite afford to buy him for the next season, which was a huge shame. He never really recovered from that. Don't think there was a lot of love lost between him and West Brom boss, Bryan Robson, at the time. Koumas in that 2006/07 side when Scimeca and McPhail were so instrumental would have been incredible.
But we never landed him. I wonder if we had managed to sign Koumas permanently, we may never have brought in Peter Whittingham.
I doubt it but you never know! Saved the 7 shirt for Koumas didn't we. Remember Hammam trying to get business owners like Giovanni trying to chip in for Koumas .
Koumas in the first half of that season with Chopra might have been the x factor we needed to continue the push. Who knows!
