not really.
dude won himself a Premiership Winners medal and got to see behind the scenes at a proper football club into the bargain, as well as getting to play in the CL again and picking up a few stories to tell the grandkids along the way.

At the time, it was the best move for him. The other teams in the big three weren't interested, and the club he plays for now is as big as any he could have signed for at the time.
He was certainly too good to play in the championship with the sheep shaggers.
