Good point. Always liked the look of Wright and coudln't understand why he was shipped out to Sunderland why we brought in Abel Xavier? Puzzling decision as you said.
Another one who didn't quite a fair crack of the ship for me was Jon Otsemobor. He looked good when he played his few first team games, lots of energy and pace, good positioning, strong and overlapped reasonably well I thought. Was never going to be good enough to displace Finnan but he's a better player than some recent right backs we've had like Josemi and Kromkamp.
TBH he's not really gone on from then at Rotherham and Crewe and has had a few issues off the pitch. Shame as I thought the lad had some talent.
