Good luck to him. Crap player. I think he's at his level with Fulham. It's no great loss in all truth. I just think he's one of those, who peaked whilst he was at a small fry club. He went to Chelsea, was clearly not of the required standard and thus stagnated. He'll get games at Fulham, so I suppose he may find some form, but will he tear up any trees? I doubt it. Will he score against us? I'm putting my fucking money down right now.

i remember most people on here thought he was some sort of lampard type player before he arrived. I didn't. I'd just like to say i told you so

What did he cost (£5 million?) and how much was he sold for?

For once-I think Sidwell was a player most of us were happy to have signed at the time and with the prices then-it seemed good value. It just never turned out that way-maybe the Chelsea move stopped him developing further or maybe he was never going to improve.
As to some of the others, not many are crap players, (most are still playing in the Premier) but they were mediocre when we bought them and remain that way ever since.
What we have stopped doing is buying players at the top of their form.

Good luck Steve. Once again, seemed a good player when arrived but went backwards as has Curtis Davies. But once again, we seem hell bent on trimming an already small squad without any replacement coming in. Lerner is obviously cutting his losses and will sell up come the end of the season. He hasn't financed a big deal since Richard Dunne signed on 1st September 2009 - a disgrace!

He was always the 'nearly' man. I've never seen a player 'nearly' score as much as him when he ran in from midfield.

Always knew there was something going on between you pair.
