I was wrong, I don't hate being wrong

Looking it up, it was 2 weeks after he joined west ham before he played a full match, which was over a month after the Plymouth game

But you get my point that it's a bit of an ellaborate conspiracy to the continue at another club fully fit pretending to be injured
