Albert Adomah - Released

[Lastfootstamper]

I liked him. His goals got us a lot of the points to get us to  Wembley last year. And I'm still unconvinced that he's not my neighbour, "Frank". Never seen them both in the same room at the same time, s'all.

But anyone that thinks he's even vaguely a PL player has a screw loose.

[themossman]

Pretty much where I am. He was an absolute gun the season before last and without his goals we’d have had another write off season instead of a run into the playoffs. Few memorable moments last season, I agree, and it’s the right decision to move on but I can’t fathom what he has done to deserve the shade he’s getting from some in here.

[KRS]

All the best to Albert but it seems to me that his legs have gone (nothing to do with being lazy or not arsed). He’s lost his pace, skill and can’t beat a man. He hasn’t got what it takes to be a key player in a team challenging for promotion, so may be a few sub cameo appearances for a mid table Championship club.

[Pete3206]

Absolutely loved him and wish him well. Certainly not as terrible last season as some are making out. IMHO of course. 

[Sexual Ealing]

I really like him, though I can't remember ever seeing him play well (and that could be my fault rather than his). You can't not love his face though.

[wittonwarrior]

He’s definitely better on the left cutting In, I was surprised at the he thought me as to why Albert was on the right and the Egyptian wizard on the left but the final 12 games answered that question for me

[Matt C]

Scored some important goals for us and was a fine servant in the Championship but he never seemed the same after that last injury.

[Hookeysmith]

Really nice guy who served well to the best of his abilities and was another treated badly by fist face.
Loved the dancing celebrations and the madness of the headstand one

Good luck Albert wherever you end up*

I thought he was a great player and should IMO be remembered as a worthy part of the recent team. Admittedly he seemed to fade as JG and TA started to get the attention but I do still think that he was an important part. Perhaps he wasn't so adaptable and with JG coming back meant that the style/formation didn't suit him.

I for one am pleased he came to Villa and hope he has a decent future ahead of him.

Absolutely.  An amazing spell last year and generally decent otherwise.  Seemed a bit quiet this season but certainly contributed.  I'd like to see him at Forrest.

[AsTallAsLions]

Flourished under Steve Bruce. Didn't suit Smith's setup at all and he was losing whatever pace he had.

Grateful for his contribution and wish him all the best in future.

[dave shelley]

I always liked Albert.  I think he reached his pinnacle with us and I'm pleased he got to be a winner with us at Wembley.  I wish him well at his new club.  Always seemed a likeable person.

Totally agree Dave, first season goals and assist tally was extraordinary but last years form was patchy to say he least but let's not forget the all important goal he scored at Stoke.

[JD]

Just been confirmed on Sky that he's signed a two year deal at Forest.

I'm pleased for him.

[KevinGage]

Might not have been the sort of player capable of making a big impression in the top flight.

But when you consider we'll be facing sides like Norwich, Sheffield United, Brighton, Newcastle, Palarse and Burnley,I would have been happy enough to keep him involved and use him when injuries started to hit.
