If he quits football after we stop chucking money at him. What will people think?
That he was a player who once looked like he could be amongst the best in the world but whose career was cruelly blighted by repeated injury.
Alternatively, he was a workshy thief who deliberately injured himself and stole money from Liverpool Football Club and probably blinds orphans for fun in his spare time.
It depends whether you're a dickhead or not really.
