Why? Who in their right mind would think that would be a good idea?

Sessegnon and Tanganga,thanks for no positive memories of your time here!!
Sessegnon only made 7 more appearances for Spurs than Tanganga.
At least Japhet didn't cost a bomb.

Yes, shame with his injuries and that probably did not help his mindset.
He had imposter syndrome out on the pitch.
He was legitimately a great prospect when younger. That promotion season for Fulham when he played in a more advanced role was stellar.
EDIT: Yeah, 15 goals and 6 assists.
So, so many injuries though, and then being played as a left back didn't help. Hopefully someone will do a pay as you play / appearance linked bonus deal - it's the only way I can see him continuing.

This was basically a day or so after he signed (also Poch distanced himself from the signing).
The writing was on the wall from the beginning which is a shame.
I think he was playing up 2 England age-groups at one point and went to the u19 Euros at 16 which I don't think has happened since for England at that level.
Medical staff should probably be released as well tbh. They have repeatedly made poor decisions that have cost us players for longer than was needed.
Was never good enough technically.
We were sold a dud based on 1 Champo season where he racked up the back post tap ins. We then tried to make him a LB/LWB and he's made of breadsticks.
Terrible scouting but he's not the only one from that era.
I had Fulham fan friend telling me at the time that we massively overpaid.

I also heard, from Fulham fans, we got the wrong Sess.
Steven, who has left Fulham and played a whopping 116 games since 2017 at lower league level. Mostly league 1, not even Champo.
So maybe the Fulham fans haven't got a clue
I remember him from when he was at Fulham and teams in the lower half of the table will have looked at that film and wonder if he could capture some of that. He had such a burst when he made runs that he gave the appearance of someone who could get the ball in the net. I think a team would balance that by looking at his medical records. He'll get a look somewhere.
What nonsense.
The bloke had a body and mind that could not cope with the demand. End of.
Good luck to him but honestly.
Body yes, he's made out of spun sugar unfortunately.
I always felt there was a talented player there, I still remember the game against Liverpool where he had Salah in his pocket.
His mindset was obviously affected because he couldn't trust his body not to breakdown. We've all seen how long it can take players to come back to form from long term injuries, it takes time to properly hit your straps as you're building up the confidence that your body will do what you want it to. He never got that luxury, as he'd breakdown again for another long period of time.
I wish him well, but I feel he's doomed to have the same issues wherever he goes, which is sad as he seems to be a very nice kid who deserves better.
The internet really really needs a sarcasm font, been sating this for years. Anyway nice lad wish him well glad for all concerned it's over. He will always have that Woolwich game under Conte.
I think that might have been a typo.
Did you mean to put the “s” at the end of that word ?
That said Good Luck to the man ; I actually think he could end up being successful somewhere .
He has been f’ing unlucky with injuries . The worst thing for any professional sportsperson .
Ps I had actually finished this post by writing: “ I really hopes he gets a break “ ; but I read it back and felt it could be misconstrued. So I deleted it .
Again : Best Wishes Ryan .

I totally agree with you and I get it.
Good luck to him but fucking hell he made Darren Anderton seem invincible
