Clrnc said:Reyes wasn't a flop at all. Throughout his time here he made great impacts on our game with crucial assists and goals. Just because mentally he was weak and decided to leave doesn't mean he is a flop imo.
Same for Arshavin. He was good and productive for 2.5 seasons, till he grew lazy/fat/whatever and wavered off our team.
Perhaps not in terms of quality as a player, but certainly in terms of their time & value. IMO Reyes' emotional issues detract from him as an investment, just as they do for the likes of Gervinho & Chamakh & any other player who is mentally weak.
