I think if Brendan had used him in a bit part, either starting or coming on after 50 - 60 mins, in an attacking C mid role, he may have stayed. I think it was inevitable he wouldn't play 90 for ever, but being DM, I think his effectiveness on a game was limited. I'm thinking, had he been able to make a bigger impact on games, he may have stayed a while longer.
Only my opinion though.
As that isn't the case, good luck in the states Stevie, hope you take it by storm. Show them what quality is really all about. And thanks for the memories, they can never be taken away !
