The 'where are they now?' files

No player who is still young, as Ayala was should be allowed to leave without a clause for first dibs.

True. But we had the "Fernando Torres of finance" running the show at that time.

Pako Ayesteran confirmed as Valencia coach next season, hopefully he'll spend 10m on Luis Alberto.

He too sexy for Valencia

Adam Hammill pretty much putting Barnsley into the playoff final.

Just scored a belter in the play off final

Liverpool need width, why spend a fortune on Mane?

Adam Morgan released by Colywn Bay. Dear me. He'll be playing for his pub side next.

He must have peaked early.....

I can only surmise he has the attitude of someone who believes is he better than that while also being supremely disappointed and frustrated with his career.

Evidence clearly shows he was never good enough to make it, but I don't think the club helped matters much by forcing him to play out wide when clearly it didn't suit him at all. I understand that for development reasons they probably felt that he need to improve his all round game which is why they did it, but it should have been apparent that he was never going to be a Thierry Henry, that goal scoring was his main/only strength and we should have concentrated on that and playing him as a CF and seen where that took him.

Haha, not that I know anything, but with the advantage of hindsight I think that that approach could have led to a slightly better career for him.

I agree, I don't think its always good for development to work on being an all-rounder. I think it's best to find out what are the best attributes a person has on give them the opportunity to work to their strengths. A player who has good positional sense and a knack for goals, doesn't have to be anywhere else than in front of the goal.

It seems really odd that he got to the point where he was getting a few games for us (albeit in a 2nd string in the Europa league) and in the 3 seasons since he has barely been able to get a game in League 1, League 2, the SPL and the national leagues, (ok so the number of clubs he's been at probably doesn't help), but you would expect/hope that any of the players who got to the point of making it on to the pitch for the LFC first team could at least make a career for themselves in League 1 or 2.
