It was just never going away. The physios were telling me it was just fluid behind my knee - they couldn’t really work out what it was. “That is when I went on loan to Ipswich and they knew about the issue. They scanned me and I failed a medical at Ipswich for this issue. “They wanted to sign me anyway. Looking back, I should never have gone. I should’ve recovered the issue. I knew I wasn’t right, I knew I wasn’t properly fit. I went there for six months. It was a bit of a mess” Feel a bit sorry for him, and all the stick he got, after reading that. Shambles. |  |

It has a whole new context now. Poor lad. |  | |  |

Career ruined by injuries and what sounds lack a complete lack of physical and mental care from clubs. And now in the Baller League. A good story to show young players and how they should make the most of any opportunities they get. Never know when it will all come crashing down. |  |

Then seeing the detail you just think you have to feel sorry for him. Isn't that a big difference between then and now? "I failed a medical at Ipswich for this issue. They wanted to sign me anyway. Looking back, I should never have gone. I should’ve recovered the issue. I knew I wasn’t right, I knew I wasn’t properly fit." Compared with desperate to sign a striker on deadline day and Broja fails his medical. |  |

Genuinely wasn't the intention. I thought it would be good for him for people to read the background to his situation here and afterwards. Preston come out with very little credit, appalling way to treat a player. |  | |  |

It's all about risk and with a loan player there's obviously not the same level of risk as you're not paying a fee, not at that level anyway. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads
