2 of the selection lessons were :
1) Don't start with O'Grady ( fixed ).
and
2) Don't have a central midfield of Ince, JFC and Holla together ( can't happen again until JFC is back from loan ).
Regardless of the penalty miss, O'Grady has consistently shown he is not good enough to be our 5th choice striker.
Ship him out in the next 6 days, and give that squad spot to ( the recovering ) Hambo.
2 years wages to cancel his contract.
It's alleged he is a high earner. If we guess at 15K per week, that is around 1.5 million pounds.
Or we can be patient and try and save some of that by offloading him in the next 7 days, or the 3 transfer windows he is contracted for.
That will be 1 million+ pounds down the drain.
At least we have the rest of this transfer window, 3 other transfer windows, and 2 loan windows to try to recoup something.
