Staying?? He stayed at least two seasons too long, from his own point of view and ours

Kav and Thorne
Having said that the Icelanders extracted top dollar (turned down several bids before selling) and we signed half a team with the money

Only for that one season. Both had good good careers easily comparable to where we were after that, and Kav had a season or two in the Prem well before we went up

Argument for Bego maybe? Think he won trophies at Chelsea but it didn't work out for him appearances-wise at a time when he should have been at his peak.

Arnautovic He was a terrace hero but followed the money 💰
I think we'd have stayed up too as he gave us options we lacked

Off topic, but I keep wondering where we would be if we had kept Rowett. I never wanted him, and didn't massively take to him, but I do wonder where we would be now a few years later. Better or worse?
Hard to imagine it being worse isn't it.

Verlinden. He would have become a massive world class player under bayern's guidance. Instead he became a nobody.
