He played 7 full games for Newcastle in the four years that he was there after coming through the ranks as a trainee. It's unfair and a little ignorant to cast judgement on a players ability to perform at the highest level when he was essentially never given the chance to do so. He's only 23 years old for fucks sake. He's learnt a lot this past season and in my estimation would be a handful at any level. He wouldn't set the premiership on fire but he'd be a an asset.
One thing's for sure and that's that Newcastle must have been cursing the fact that they sold him at all in hindsight and certainly for as little money as they did. Chopra's mishandling is just symptomatic of the big fucking mess that is Newcastle United Football Club.
