Ridiculous to pay well over the odds on a 2-year deal for a bloke who is on the downslope. From media coverage he was offered a 1-year deal, didn't take it, that's his call.
Don't judge management decisions on one night (or even a handful of games). I predict (without much fear of contradiction) that Dylan and especially Matty will provide better value over the next two years. What's more, the club still has the June/July period to stock up for the HAL season.
I don't recall the club being reported as saying he was asking over the odds, only didn't want to give him a two year deal. As he has scored consistently for his whole carreer and is still doing so, where is the eveidence to back the judgement call that he is not up to it for another two years.
Downslope, probably! Depends where you start on the slide is the issue though.
Even more of a concern with the talk of the departure of Simon.
can tell you that he was asking way over the odds, plus he was asking all these bonus clauses - bonuses after five games played, ten games played etc, bonuses for every goal, assists etc, etc
