In a bad place, redemption arcs. He was really put through hell in Holland. The press, the fans, his manager…everyone just tore into him. 

Chance here for a new start and a chance to enjoy a bit of football, away from the European tabloids.

Remember when the British tabloids tore into him for buying a house for his mother, weirdly accusing him of being some kind of class traitor or of not being good enough to spend the money he’d earned or something? 

I certainly thought being at a low point might help seal the deal, but I didn’t realise it was this low. 

Still I think he’s been a good servant for his country and a good pro and doesn’t deserve to be torn to shreds. 

Put in his contract most money kicking in after a certain number of appearances and goal contributions and see how he goes.
