Well it's plainly obvious the benefit - but also the detraction. (professionally more so than personally)
He's 28 FFS, just broken into the England squad and now busted himself out of it.
Surely SPL (not that one!) is the retirement home of the over thirties?

Good move imo, was bumming around the FL until about 24/25. Earnt a decent wage but probably well behind the likes of England team mates, yes, he's gone probably 5 years early, but he may never get another opportunity to earn this sort of money. Ultimately football means nothing and he needs to put himself and his family first.
