Mon Feb 14, 2022 11:22 am

Surely with this latest setback the lad needs to retire and the club to look at insurance payback for him.

Tbh I just assumed that he was anyway.
Sad really. Unlike a certain other player who recently left us it seemed that iV was desperate to play.

Never happy with the Vassell signing, not because of his injury record, but he had never set the world alight, and for £4M, we could have done so much better.

Is he under contract next year? If so, it must be paid up. I don't always support paying up contracts but on this occasion absolutely nobody will take a risk on him now.

I seriously doubt he cost £4m

All I have to go on is what is bandied about, and this figure has cropped up a few times?

Im just sad we ever allowed Warnock to squander money on him especially as his injury record was well known

Could have done better for 4 million. Good job he didn’t cost that much then.

Could have bought half a Cornelius. Even half of him running in a circle would have done the same as he actually did for us. At least Vassell scored.

1.98 million and undisclosed I’ve seen.

I’m sure 4 million is bandied about by those with an agenda against the club.

Of course 1.98 million is too much.

What has he ACTUALLY done? Because Joe Bennett did his ACL last year and is back playing. Shit. sorry for being flippant but Eriksen actually died and has been able to sign for a new club. Vassell has had horrific luck but to have not played a competitive game since 2019 with a pandemic inbetween?
