Odemwingie is definitely a talented player but he can be a bit selfish at times. The EPL isnt the end-all-be-all...there are many other good leagues out there willing to pay talented players well and make them guaranteed starters. I think he's 29 now so he probably wanted one last crack at joining a mid-level/big-club in one of the top leagues. He left one of the best clubs in Russia to join an English club that will be in a relegation battle all season...to me it looks like he joined WBA as a temporary destination in hopes of proving his worth to other clubs. It's a smart decision by him but it'll be a painful season since WBA are a really poor team.
