Oh, where did it all go wrong? Still, a life as a Championship footballer's not all that bad, I suppose. Can he actually get his career back up to speed?

[Albion] Former Albion players on the move

Oh, where did it all go wrong? Still, a life as a Championship footballer's not all that bad, I suppose. Can he actually get his career back up to speed?
This is Connolly’s career at full speed . He’s doing well . Next divisional stop is down not up
Yep, he let us all down. We should all hope and pray that he flops. It's the right thing to do, innit............................
Last season he scored 8 goals in 1215 minutes, one goal every 152 minutes. Had he played as much as the Championship top scorer Sammie Szmodics, the 1 goal/152 minutes would have resulted in 25 goals.
Hopefully he can stay fit more often next season, there's a very good Championship striker in Aaron.
Yes, I agree - but although I'm not as dismissive as some on here (post #182 for example) I do realise he has the capacity to f**k it all up!

There are a few reasons why he only played the equivalent of 13 matches in the season though, and it’s not just injuries.
No one denies he has talent, it’s his desire to be the next Leon Best that is the issue.

Not quite 'on the move' but this seemed the best place to post this. Former Albion youngster Toby Collyer seems to be impressing for Man Utd on their pre-season tour

Connor Goldson, sold by Rangers after six years and over 300 appearances to Aris Limassol. A nice semi-retirement in the warm sunshine in Cyprus? Not a bad career.
James Furlong - LB who had a decent loan at Motherwell, and then signed permanently for Hull, but never played a League match for them - has moved to MK Dons on a free, where he can link up with Tom McGill.

Especially after that heart issue threatened to end his career completely!

For 80 million we'd receive around 1.2m for him. What's even crazier, his first ever team where he played at when he was 12, currently sit in the 5th division of Swedish football. They'd receive nearly 1m for him!
Looks like we won't be getting it, not this window anyway, now that the Arse have paid big money for Calafiori. Big money, but about half the amount touted for Big Viktor, so may have decided better VFM.

Why oh why oh why?
They play at opposite ends of the pitch, so signing one doesn't preclude signing the other...?
How likely are they to go for two big signings? I get the feeling that most clubs are, of PSR necessity, reeling it in a bit.
