Don't forget some players really like London and going to another club based here is a bonus, plus we've a pretty cushy setup as we know. If he thinks we've enough promise and he'll be first on the teamsheet, he might go for it.

And he may be pissed off with paunchetino - remember he was left on the bench for the derby? It gets to players when they're left out of the big games
