Which player, in hindsight, do you think regrets leaving the club ?

Rodwell went off a cliff when he left. Barkley did much the same. Shame their heads were turned and we'll never know what might have been.
 
Going to real even as a sub is a no brainer
Hmm, i don't agree. Sitting watching others pay/win rather than doing it yourself. That's the problem with the brand names and the media supported myth that it's somehow an honour to be chosen by them, even if it's just to collect the dirty laundry at the end of a match
 
Christ what weasels Gosling and Barkley were running contracts down for nothing careers afterwards.

A slightly more physical Dolufeu would've been welcome for longer... Some other great shouts on here, so I'll go, er... Lescott. Albeit him and Stones both picked up silverware afterwards.

I'm not doing well here.
 
Honestly don't agree with Jack Rodwell.

Was touted as the next big Centre Half, and we decided to reverse the Jagielka and make him a midfielder. I thought he was very average in midfield and was very overhyped.

He left to get a very handsome salary off Man City, won a league medal, cleaned up £40k a week off Sunderland, then got to go live in Australia for a few years.

There were always murmurs that football wasn't even his first love. How substantiated they are, guess only those closest to him will know.

But he's a multimillionaire, and played a grand total of 274 Professional games of football. Id say he got a great deal.

To be fair, that’s first half season with them, he only played 300mins less for them than he did for us.

Started 18 out of 21 appearances for them in that half season.

He started 21 out of 23 appearances for us in the first half of the season.

He then started in 20 of 29 appearances the next season.

Rodwell was ridiculously overhyped anyway. One of the better sales we've made, in fact we probably did it a year too late.
