You can pull two examples from this

Earnshaw and Ashton

One played in the fa cup and got injured, right around the time Blackburn were sniffing around and were reporting to be bidding figures of 6 or 7m

In the end he activated his release clause the season after and buggered off

The other didn't play in the fa cup, and was sold for 7.5m, didn't play for 2 weeks, and then played the last 15 minutes of games for 2 weeks before getting fit

Quite an elaborate plot considering he's on the verge of retiring at 25 wouldn't you say?
