Not terribly happy about this Lewis move

I know he's only thrid choice and not likely to get a look in for a couple of years but:

1. He's a Norwich boy and a Norwich fan and it would have been great to see him graduate as our number 1 and make it his own.

2. I can't help but think in a couple of years time he'll move somewhere for big money and although we may get a small sell on fee we won't reap the benefits we would have if he had been here.

I really, really hope therefore we aren't making a big mistake. I don't see why we can't just loan him out for the season next year if first team games are what he's after.

At the very least we need a really decent sell-on clause if this deal happens.
