Liverpool fans quickly moved on from the disappointment of seeing Jude Bellingham reject them for Real Madrid last summer.
The Reds had been involved in a long pursuit of the then Borussia Dortmund midfielder.
There’s little question that he would have helped to take Liverpool up another gear.
With the 20-year-old back in England today to take on Manchester City in the Champions League, he was always likely to be asked about his decision to turn down a Premier League move last year.
Having chased him for so long and felt close to convincing him that playing under Jurgen Klopp was his best bet, it was suddenly all over.
At the time, Bellingham suggested that the Champions League final in 2022, which Liverpool lost to Real, played a part in his decision to choose the Bernabeu.
And his latest quotes on his Dortmund exit follow a similar these.
And with City up next for Madrid, it’s they who Bellingham is questioned about ahead of the game.
“I had good chats with [other] clubs, including Dortmund,” he said.
After 34 games for his new club, the midfielder has scored 20 goals.
Los Blancos are on course for the La Liga title and have a decent chance of sneaking through today’s Champions League tie with City.
It’s hard to think he’ll be regretting his choices at all.
Nevertheless, as an Englishman, you’d imagine that Bellingham would want to sample the Premier League at some stage.
