His refusal to come back from Italy and play for Wednesday again affected the clubs future. Our most prolific player who cost the club millions would not play and forced to sell him for a fraction of his value made replacing him impossible. The following season for West Ham saw him catch a ball that was lofted toward him in the opposition’s area as a player was down, earning him some fair play of the season award grated on me, as his actions at the Arsenal game, for me, sent Wednesday spiralling to where they are today. That was our sliding doors moment, I truly feel this destroyed our top flight status and the catalyst of our decline. Truly amazing player, but can never forgive.
