rodders0223 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Had a couple of decent seasons in the championship but sadly, even as a young man, he had less pace that 2016 Heskey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 He had a decent enough career, deadly at league one level, solid at Championship level, even managed to get a few games and a couple of goals in the premier league. At one point I actually thought it would have been worth us looking at him, he was scoring quite a lot of goals for Walsall as a teenager if I recall.

Denis242 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2018/02/13/ryan-mason-retires-football-medical-advice-13-months-serious/ Very sad news! I already forgot about his horrific head injury, so when we played Hull, I didnt even knew he was there anymore. I hope he can live a happy live, I always thought he was an underrated player, so I didnt understand why he has gone to Hull in the first place. He could have easily slotted into the Everton team or so. in the end this transfer is very tragic for both team and player. But the most important thing is, that he is fine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah massive shame for the lad. Your life is more important though and players are insured for stuff like this so that will be some comfort for him and his family.

What a plank. If Saido Berahino doesn't score against Leicester tomorrow then he's gone a full two years without a goal. 43 appearances by my count. I still think he'd have kicked on if he'd signed for Spurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) The thing is, you could tell from his behaviour when the move failed that his character flaws would be his downfall. He is exactly where he deserves to be, 2 years of potential development gone that he will never get back. As a huge FM player I cannot tell you how important those years before 23 are for development You don't get that back.

Genie Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 The situation with WBA, Spurs and Berahino was quite special as absolutely everybody involved lost out. WBA lost both a good player (mentally) and a huge chunk of money. Spurs lost out on a promising young striker Berahino missed out on a huge move, big pay rise etc. I know the chairman was making a point but it has proved that you shouldn’t force an unhappy player to stay. It’s annoying as the owner but you have to just try and get the best possible deal and then let him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
