Think he'll end up at a good club. Seen Newcastle, spurs and forest mentioned. Can't imagine it will be anywhere near as much as we paid him though and he definitely won't be playing much

Won't loose sleep when he's gone (in-fact its like he left in January). Could have been top class under a better manager I doubt he'll be no more than a bench warmer at another premier league club. Though he'll start every game if he drops down to the championship if he can stay fit.

Think he'll move to a foreign league. I'd like to see him in blue before he leaves though, it's the right time to leave but deserves a good send off.

Had all the tools, very likeable lad, wish him well.

Shite finisher of course as we know, a one on one horrorshow. but for me, his main negative was he just lacked any competive edge. Its almost as if he fell into football as a career option, narrowly edging out junior branch manager at Sheffield City Centre's NatWest branch.

Rooney...it was like he was forged in the footballing equivalent of the fires of Mordor, as if it was his whole reason for existing... but I never really got that with Dom. Have we ever seen him fall out with anyone, or lose his cool ... ever? I'm not sure thats always a good thing.

Can't imagine he'll get a good send off regardless based on attitudes towards him.

He's crap at 1 on 1 finishing.

Can't disagree with that comment. Championship player at best. We've had too many players making a good living from our club without busting a gut. I doubt the club will be so easily suckered with TFG in charge.

Come on he might not ever be a natural goalscorer but he's far from a Championship player. The lads going to have a career around the prem or a top league even with his injury record. He's been a good signing let's not talk about him likes his Niasse

Done his Hammy too in the Brighton game can't you remember.


Too many have short memories, clearly been our best CF , in his time here. Grateful for the important goals scored . Injuries yeah but that's footy. Still only 28 , last scoring record is bad no getting away from it. But at least we didn't spend 20-30 million on him like the dross.

Definitely above championship level, superb athlete, leader of the line, able to keep 4 defenders occupied on his own.

I can’t think of a time he didn’t give his all despite being played out of position and too often brought back early from injury. But hey, he was stealing a living.

Some awful shouts here. He’s not a Drogba, but he’s a decent premier league CF. Look at who he’s played under and played with and then say who was harder done by, him or us?

Some of the snide comments are out of order imo. He's not a brilliant striker but in terms of effort and important goals I appreciate him and wish him better than he gets here. Short memories
