" He was very keen and really had a strong desire to go and play somewhere where he felt he was going to be an automatic first choice and wanted to feel like he was the main man at a club".
Doesn't sound like the best attitude does it or am I reading that wrong. Good luck to him.

I don't think it necessarily reads that badly for Fraser, more the move didn't work here and he had a good opportunity elsewhere. We probably signed rather more competition for his role than he was lead to expect.

I see it as a player used to being an important part of a sides set up, knew the formation and players at the club meant he knew he was never going to have that same responsibility here. He enjoyed and was allowed to control games last season. He created goals. He started phases of plays In the final third. Here he was a bit part, and it doesn't matter how good he is. He was never going to be that player for us when we've brought in players like Morsy. Celina. Chaplin.

Shame as he's got something those above just don't have, natural ball playing abilities, no he's not the fastest, but he knows how to find a man. Weight of pass is the best I've seen at town for many years etc and he finds that simple pass better than all others.

a niche perspective

It’s a shame as I think he’s a quality footballer. Could come back to haunt us. However there’s never really been a natural position in the side to accommodate him effectively. He’s not a holding midfielder, nor a natural number 10 or wide man and he’s certainly not a box-to-boxer either.

He’s probably right that he needs to be the main man and have the team set up to suit his ball playing strengths. Couldn’t see that happening here.

Good luck to him. No hard feelings.
