…not so sure about ‘cursed’, this was a high risk signing because his injury record suggested he could go amiss. Ipswich did their homework and pulled out of a deal but we took the risk. This is more about poor transfer strategy than bad luck.

His goal scoring record is low as he hardly plays - send him back IMO ... a waste of a wage & treatment .... Ipswich were no fools .....
Hardly mate. He's had loads of injuries and was even injured when we signed him.
Besides the injuries he really not shown a great deal.anywsy bar a 6 months period on loan at Southampton
Fulham had him for 6 months same old problem, hardly played .....
I think we're stuck with his wages regardless, mate. May be able to cancel his registration, and make room for another loan, but the money is committed either way.

Better that happened at a time when there is some hope of replacing him.
Shocking luck for the guy.

Always a massive risk loaning/signing injury prone players. We never learn really. It's the first thing I look at on transfermarkt when we're linked with someone.

It's one of the gambles when you're trying to punch above the weight of your budget and current standing, I guess.
….from BBC;
Chelsea striker Armando Broja has seen a loan move to Ipswich collapse because of an injury.
An initial loan move with an obligation to buy for £30m had been agreed but an issue flagged in the medical put Ipswich off completing the deal.
They are now looking at alternative options before deadline day as the Albania international, 22, is expected to stay at Stamford Bridge.

Might not be the truth. But the deal confused me at the time because Ipswich went back with repeated bids.
Only assume he decided he wanted Everton and that's why he comes here...
At least get a loaned who can play .... he looks a classy player but lasts not that long in his last two appearances if it was a very bad tackle- ok - he kicked the turf & then fell over ? Out for 3 weeks plus treatment cost ....
