Oh I was well aware from the start, and totally understood why the Bournemouth based press would put out the maximum figures as they were selling their player of the year. I also get why our board would use that figure when showing how they've backed the manager, but our local press always questioned the figure and plenty of our fans used it as a stick to beat him with.
£13M is a good price and will prove to be a bargain. I just hope we keep hold of him, as the longer he stays the more value it returns, but if not we'd sell him for much more than we paid.
Oh, and he's 22, so like Brewster his potential is huge for us, and with the mental toughness he's shown us already he got everything he needs to become one of the top keepers in the country.
