he signed a 4 year contract so we could've offered a new one after a year of averageness which wouldve been silly. after another year of average performances his worth wouldve been between 10 and the 13 we paid. as soon as he kicked in and upped his game the club wanted to award that. its hard to see what couldve been done differently
