: \u201cYeah, and you know what? He’s absolutely flying at the moment – he scored the winning goal in the Champions League. He’s doing well.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cI didn’t see any Prem clubs coming in. I see West Ham were interested. And I’m surprised West Ham didn’t get that over the line because he would have probably gone to West Ham. Because he probably feels they would get promoted and they’ll be back in the Premier League next season.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cBut, he’s gone to Betis with [Manuel] Pellegrini. Troy’s a good player. He’s done well. He’s been reformed. International last season, he was fantastic, scored a lot of goals, nearly made Ireland qualify. And he just took that form on through his club.<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cHe looks unplayable at the moment. Great news for Ireland. So hopefully he can get us qualified for the Euros in a couple of years. He looks a good player. You’re probably right, I was surprised in particular West Ham didn’t get that deal done. I would have paid the 17 million for him because he’s a big player.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
