No goal in his five games for them and not played for nearly two months as he did his hamstring heading the ball according to Karl Robinson. They took a gamble on someone injury prone with his best years far behind him and it's not worked out yet for them.
And yet there are probably still people that think he would be the solution to our attacking limitations. He’s toxic, expensive, and past it. Hopefully that’s the end of the debate.
Ironically, this probably shows he was right to go to Wednesday. Looking at it from his point of view, that was his big chance financially so he took it. Since then there's been no luck, but he's still set for life surely, provided he hasn't pissed it away. Water under the bridge. With hindsight, I think we're better off without! Although, I will always remember Walsall, plus the rest of that season.
That injury he got on loan at derby did him, and Wednesday were paying him just short of 20k a week. Downhill from here for Sammy.
no issue whatsoever with him leaving us for a big payday. how he left, and how he returned however, were unforgivable for me. both were classless and completely unnecessary.
