Yes. He is a good player. I've not said he isn't very good.

Certainly worth well over £4m. The Redmond fee we got was pathetic and selling Howson for £4m would be in the same bracket.

But he's not quite as good as is sometimes made out and he has some incredible games and some very anonymous games so if he were replaced by someone more consistent it wouldn't be the end of the world in my view.
