Only other thing is his international future but even then Vogts has shown that he'll pick first division players.

Dickov didn't do anything wrong in La Manga. You know? Charges dropped. Why in the blue hell would anyone in their right mind want to drop down a division at the tail end of their careers when they have better offers in the top league? He had a contract with you and he didn't have to accept another one. Don't know how you can get relegated and yet offer players like him improved deals. Maybe he was on a crappy one to start with. Remember who put the clause in his contract which made him available to talk to other clubs if a fixed price was made,
