Suppose that a benificial move for him. Would have been good to see him progress and show what he had to offer.

Shame, I hoped he was going to be our midfield general for years to come (until the big clubs nicked him)

Thats a pity, saw a video on him last season and looked very settled and one for the future, I surpose we let him go for sod all as per our transfer out policy for all ages.

No but I did see a video on him trying to make it at Fulham and while the press and supporters may have given him high praise...it seemed that the youth coaches said he needed to work harder if he was going to make it....seems he was not good enough for us or never worked hard enough...

Shame Fulham couldn't bother to include his departure in the round-up of ins and outs -
