Or even being allowed to hold onto the #1 shirt at the start of the previous season?
This is my beef about side-lining an outstanding youngster, which we effectively did once Grix came crawling back.
It's all conjecture now anyway.

You really are hugely vindictive at times.
He was sidelined as you put it because the flaws in his game towards the end of 2016 were obvious to all - he simply wasn't ready. The idea that somehow he'd have improved if left in place in 2017 is absurd. Yeah he may have gotten better but to suggest he'd have given us the season Grix did doesn't hold up to scrutiny. I suggest a full season at F/B would have destroyed his confidence and scuppered his future career. He got his chances in 2017 and was pretty much awful in every game, how is that Grix or Chesters fault!
As for Grix coming "crawling back" - seriously man is he the first player ever to leave a club and then come back.
Jowitt broke through as a 20 year old into a technically difficult position, one which he hadn't mastered - he needed the time to grow his game and Chester gave it him and has been very quick to reward the player for doing so - what more do you want?
Chester has been utterly vindicated regarding Max but then he sees him day in and day out so he would wouldn't he, and he knows the lad well which is more than you or I do.
You were wrong he was right, to me it's that simple.
