Agree with this too much too soon, remember the days when they used to clean the full time pro's boots. Seriously the money in football, especially this country has gone ridiculous.

Seem to remember he was sold to give us the funds for Mirallas.
complete waste of talent, he was rated across europe as the best of his age group when he was 16/17, a lesson there for aspiring ballers, as far less talented players will have far better careers
Ross in 5 years.....
Only 26 bring him back.

This!
If he was from a country that is actually good at developing young players (e.g. Germany, France or Croatia) he’d be a quality player in his prime now.
But no, he was a young English player who showed an ounce of talent so had to immediately be put on a multi-million pound a year deal. Life sorted at 20 in one stroke of a pen. No incentive to ever put in hard graft ever again.
Add to that an agent who advised a decent-ish young player that the best thing for his career was a move to man city. In terms of money yes, but in terms of success in the game absolutely not. How he thought when he was inconsistent at Everton, and in and out of the side, that he would get in man city’s team is beyond me.
Think of what some players in Africa or South America have to go through to get the same wealth. And that’s with the pressure of knowing that many members of their extended family are depending on them to “make it” in order to have any decent quality of life.

Wow, that's some statement. Plenty of competition for that title over the past 6 months.

Overrated tosh when he played for us, yet Sunderland pay him more than what most Spurs players get. No wonder they're in the shlte

I remember Martinez tried to bring him back from City in his first window (this time 4 years ago I think) it didn't happen obviously, maybe things may have been different for Jack if it did.

I actually thought we got a good deal when we sold him and I wasn’t that bothered. City bought him based on “potential” he has not really progressed.
It will be interesting to see if he takes the free transfer. He’s on good money and it would be easy for him to just sit it out. If he does go on a free it wouldn’t surprise me if a team in the bottom half of the premier league signed him. I don’t think we should though, plenty of options in central midfield

Will probably get picked up by someone like Burnley and rebuild his career like Dan Gosling after he flopped at the Mags and go on to gain 50 England caps lol
Saying that wouldn’t be surprised if he’s had enough of the game and walks away from it like David Bentley
