    I think there’s some truth in someone saying they’re trying to shift the blame because they know he’s a donkey.

    Definitely, they were clinging on to the hope that a successful loan spell in Scotland would result in them clawing back some of their outlay.

    There was probably an arrogance on their part that he'd scoosh the SPFL and they didn't factor in the further damage it would do to his value if he bombed in a league that is looked down upon. They're stuck with a haddy and they know it.

    Just cause the rat played him and Lenny didn't doesn't mean he treated him badly :56: West Brom are just gutted they paid 15M for a sprinter with the touch of a rapist on speed, they'll be lucky to get half that money back daft *.

    Well when it comes to hiding, that is more a confidence issue. The decision making comes through experience, especially for attacking players.

    You're not wrong in any of your points, but with an improved first touch, his confidence will rise, he'll get more game time and learn from the experience. I just hope he has listened to the criticism and is working night and day on his touch.

    If someone is willing to put the time in on him, he could turn into a top class player. At £15m, no will want to spend that on a project. So it's up to West Brom to develop him. I hope they do.

    He can't develop a first touch at this stage of his career.
