I would like to read that someone at City at least tried to help especially

as the club prides itself on its sense of community. I guess being out of the first team did nothing to help him though, and as Ralf says below, he wasn't helping himself much either...lets hope now he has admitted the problem to himself he can work hard on it (though judging by his football career, hard work doesn't come easy to him).
