Leaves me with a feeling of we haven’t learned. I hope I’m wrong but I expect he will spend half of his contract on the treatment table.
Great news, really good player & sounds like he & his family are settled here, which is always a positive. I was wondering what chance we would have of signing Nixon, really like him & would be perfect to challenge Sterry. Whatever happens he will go on to be a good player for either us or someone else in my opinion.

No doubt he can play, just his durability that’s in question. Hopefully we get 35+ games out of him next season.

One bad injury can’t be a reason not to sign someone

One bad injury can’t be a reason not to sign someone He's clearly had issues with injury throughout his career given the sheer number of games that he's missed, though. It's not just about one bad injury but regular smaller injuries.If we get half a season out of him at the level he was performing earlier on, though, that's not bad given his quality.
