Dorrans hasn't been able to nail down a regular starting place for them even in the Championship, so I'm not sure we're going to regret losing him that much.  His natural talent comes out in fits and bursts, but the consistency needed with it has just never arrived.

Yup - fair comment, but another angle is that a more fired-up GD, playing for the right Manager/HC could be an outstanding PL player if that Manager/HC could get him to show his undoubted skills on a more consistant basis. I hope that DOES happens for him - and that consistency only leaves him for 2 games next year.........
