Looked poor last season but will undoubtedly go on to be a better player once playing with a top side.

I'll miss his hair styles more than his football.

I think there's a decent player there. The injury definatley set him back but good luck to him.

I'd agree with that.

Look at this way how many champions league standard clubs come in for mid table championship squad players. It's clear from his time at Nice his reputation is still high abroad.

Sevilla's a great move for him as they've revitalized many players. N'zonzi was seen as a limited player at Stoke, he's now one of the best DMs in european football.

Makes sense to put in a sell on clause.

Yep, he can definately be a top player. If I recall it took Delph a long time to build himself back up after his injury, he looked out of his depth in the premier league for 12-18 months after coming back but eventually got in the England team and went to a top 4 side. I definitely think Amavi has the ability to play in the champions league if he can get back to his best, although maybe more as a wing back than full back. Good luck to him anyway.

I liked him, but thought he needed more time after his terrible injury, to get back to his full level.

Good luck to the chap. 8 million is a bargain when you see some of the fees being bandied about these days.

Great move for him. I am sad he is going. Feels like we had our pocket picked a bit here.

Can someone tweet Tone on the sell-on hopes?

Good luck to him. He'll develop into a first team regular at Sevilla, one of the best teams in Europe. He never chucked his toys out of the pram and tried to force a move so I wish him no ill will.

Utterly mediocre. No loss.

Completely wrong, imo. But it would be better if you turn out to be right I suppose.

Pointless signing. Why bother signing young, talented players if we haven't a clue how to develop them?

Good luck to him. He's still a lot to learn having wasted the last few years.

Can't defend, can't tackle, no positional awareness, one decent cross, doesn't ever look scoring.

Cheers Jordan, good luck.

Always sucks to see players leave that are capable of turning around a poor season and no outbound news on the leeches that are still here leeching the club dry. ???

Reported to be £8m plus add ons. A bit short of our glorious leaders expectations in December.

Doing well to be getting 8m for him given his performances for us

Certainly has talent and can deliver a crscking ball at times but we wont miss him trying to take on an attacker inside his own half nor his diabolical attitude when things went against him and the team on the pitch

His performance at Fulham last season was a benchmark in unprofessionalism

He had obvious talent but he was going nowhere with us, a good deal for all.
