As others have said it’s a strange one in that it should feel like a big loss but it doesn’t. Good player (not great) and will probably go on to play for a big club as he’s still only 22 and improving.
Maybe it’s because his career at Saints was a bit hit and miss.
I’m not sure that RM really rated him, it was very much an in and out of favour season for him.
Then he came back from his loan with high expectations and we had a fucking fraud for a manager but he was probably our stand out player aside from Scienza during that period (but the bar was very, very low) and then by the time he came back from injury we were getting into the heavy rotation due to the fixture pileup.
So I’m not really sure at any point in his saints career he’s been one of the first names on the team sheet but he’s still getting a £30m move.
