If Jones was English he would have gone the same route as most hyped English players that don't quite live up to all the talk. They live off the hype fuh a few seasons (sometimes quite a few!!) getting one or two big money moves then as they continually fail to produce...they fade, not always into obscurity but certainly they drop divisions or if their lucky end up a squad player with the lesser premiership teams. Jones still has time to come good (And I hope he does) but here are some examples anyway:
Zamora....very hyped at Brighton, England U-21 international, went to Spurs and bombed, dropped a division with the Hammers and was very average there. The fans certainly didn't take to him. Now at Fulham....only still there cause none of the other 5 strikers have set the world alight either.
Francis Jeffers....the big Everton hope before Rooney, went to Arsenal with huge hype. Where is the "Fox in the box" now?
Carlton Cole.....big hype when at Chelsea, England U-21. Many loan moves...none very successful. Now at West Ham, where he is a decent player but certainly no Drogba clone like some were saying.
(This one is slightly harsh)Dean Ashton...hyped at Crewe, went to Norwich and lived up to the hype, went to the Hammers were he got an England cap (was it against us?) but has played so infrequently due to injury, they thinking of offloadin him. Difficult to know if he is the real deal as he only has had one full season (in the top league) out of Four at West Ham.
Marcus Bent (not Darren)....big hype when joining literally every club he has played for ( and he has played for a lot)...was best at Sheffield Utd & Ipswich when playing with Darren Bent. Tends to have a good/decent first season then fades the next and moves on. Certainly no hype now...think he bench warms fuh Birmingham now.
That is just a few, there are loads more I'm sure you guys could think of...but the story is generally the same. They bounce around Teams playing average to mediocre but still people willing to try just in case they come good again. Even if Kenwyne continue playing tutu for the rest of his career he still will be in the Premier league for a few seasons yet, mainly due to the occasional amazing peformance, his size (English managers love ah big target man) and age if nothing else.
