Jordon Ibe

A starlet that somehow Bournemouth got, now called disappointment by Eddie Howe and sent packing for rest of season.

Is this another young talent gone off the rails corrupted by fame and fiortune at too young an age without having achieved anything?

Sent packing were ? They bought him for £15m last summer on a 4 year deal.

Been crap. Unusual for a manager to use such strong terms about players.

He's being made available to Championship clubs.

“He hasn’t been a regular in the team and that will be a disappointment for him and for us.” Howe said of the Bermondsey-born forward. “I still feel there’s a lot of potential in there, but obviously he’s got to fulfil that when he gets chances like today.

“We picked players that we haven’t seen regularly in the Premier League, we gave them an opportunity to express themselves‚” he went on. “Individually they are very good players so I was excited to see it. Obviously the reality proved different.”

Where does it say he's being made available to Championship clubs?

so he was stupid enough to pay £15m - what does he expect? another over priced English player..

Released by National League outfit Ebbsfleet United. I saw his name as was like, "did he actually ever play for Liverpool?" and yeah he did , 58 times. It's been quite a drop for him, with his six month spell at Ebbsfleet being preceded by 18 months without a club. Still only 28.

That is some drop.

That's got to be one of the most incredible drops in English football. What went wrong ?

Remember him being on loan at Derby playing against us in the Championship. Thought at the time he looked a very promising prospect!

Maybe try to resurrect his career abroad?
He's already tried that - a very unproductive spell in Turkey after leaving Derby.

Depression is a horrible thing and Jordon seems affected badly by it.

Always remember him as a 11 year old bowling across Southwark Park to come to trials for the District Team, boots over his shoulder and looking every inch a player, to the point we virtually selected him without seeing him play base don his swagger! He's had two other Bermondsey kids with him at Ebbsfleet - Dom Samuel and Matthias Fanimo but but doesnt seem to have helped him settle. Think Matthias has been released as well, so may need to try and get them down Fisher next season if the dont need money!
