    CP and BHA are the only clubs to not have netted a goal yet. it might be an encouraging sign for lee to get more playing time, except his play seems awfully risk-averse and he doesn't have that confident edge and quickness that allowed him to be flashy on the wing, what, several years ago :cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:

    Totally agree! He seems scary of making mistakes.. still better than Benteke today. CPs version of KNT Kim Shin Wook.

    Man if he had just pulled trigger faster and scored instead of waffling and getting muscled off. May have propelled him forward.

    KNT tends to have some waffle experts

    Bolton wanted him for free and demanded him to cancel his contract with CP. Both CP and LCY weren't happy about it. So it looks like he is staying.

    On the other hand, how much is he worth? Salary obv an issue but taking fee.

    Surprising to hear given that I can't imagine him going for much more than a million or so, and CP would have saved about that much by terminating the contract.

    But if it was Lee wanting compensation for the termination, I guess it's a different story.

    neither story makes a ton of sense (LCY being held back as critical depth, or LCY being asked to scrap salary completely given CPFC could have chipped in a little). I guess if I had to choose, I'd go former given their terrible window.

    So with FdB looking possible/probable to get canned, reports are that Dougie Freedman (currently director of football) could come in temporarily. I wonder given prior relationship if that played into LCYs thinking.

    After that injury, he really lost his game. His speed and quickness decrease massively.

    1st assist of the season for Lee. Completely fooled everyone on the pitch.
