We get a winger who scores 30 goals in 67 starts at this level. You avoid getting a player who tries to maximise his income.![]()

Only half of those appearances were as a starter, and even then his strike rate is excellent, 1282 minutes on the pitch in total last season Goal every 240 minutes. As a winger that's superb. 5 goals 3 assists.

What are you "oh dearing" about?
PO had a decision to make. He had two options join Cardiff or stay at WBA. He has told us why he chose to come.
All other clubs reportedly after PO did not match WBA's acceptable price and fell away therefore wages were not an overriding consideration.
