Wow, he was so different to how I thought he would be.
Didn't come over as a bad egg, said he wanted to stay at QPR after the playoff, but wasn't allowed.
I think he just had bad advisors and a poor group of friends. I reckon Uncle Neil could have got the best out of him with some time |  | | |

Same.
I got the impression, that managers scapegoated him a bit.
Only one side of the story obviously, but Allardyce telling him he can look after his dying mum then using it against him with his team mates when form turned bad seemed quite shitty. [Post edited 20 May 10:00]

Wasn't it well know that Allardyce "fell out" with any players who wouldn't use "his" agent?
Greedy bstard seems to want to get paid two ways for any deal they organise! | | | |

Obviously really misguided and stupid off the pitch , but I thought he was a fantastic footballer . The disciplined performance in the playoff semi protecting Young suk Young , the goals that he scored .. a chance to go right to the top wasted |  | | |

Not a drinker was a surprise...
Diagnosis of ADHD..
Seems from what he says his addiction to PlayStation was his biggest vice,..
Be interested to see what his managers thought.!! |  |

Which I think is mainly down to a lack of too much going on between the ears. If you're creative and busy with your creativity, addiction tends to be less of a thing. Footballers tend to get bored a lot when they're not training or playing because they're usually not very bright or mentally eventful. What counts in life is having an inner life so that all the nonsense and evil of the world - what Sartre called the hell of other people - can slide off you rather than f*cking up your intrinsic vision and style. |  |

So much to disagree with there I don't know where to begin.
You seem to have some very elitist prejudices towards footballers, and probably video games too.
I went to the sort of school where you were as likely to end up in prison as go to university. Despite that I did go to university.
Along the way I have met many very smart and successful people who don't have much in the way of academic qualifications,
I also know a fair few highly qualified people who couldn't find their arse with both hands if you didn't give them a self-help book telling them how to do it.
So yeah, most footballers don't have much in the way of formal education. Doesn't mean they're not intelligent.
You also seem to have some ill-informed ideas about addiction.
It's not hard to find plenty of articles online suggesting that there is a correlation between addiction and high intelligence.
Taking one at random:
https://vertavahealth.com/blog/correlation-intelligence-addiction/
"Addiction is a complex issue that has multiple influences, including intelligence. Many specialists have considered the connection between addiction and intelligence, trying to gauge how they are related. The results of various studies have been surprising: high intelligence has been more commonly linked to addiction, rather than low intelligence. But why?" [Post edited 23 May 12:21]
