How was it against all odds? He was fantastic in the Bundesliga, was a natural step to introduce him into the team because he'd proven himself at a high level (NOT at youth level or in a lower division). Was it against all odds when Courtois did the same thing? Not really.
What made it even less surprising, to me at least, was the HG quota was an issue for us back then. Why lose him when he was one of the few capable players who'd fill a slot? Would've been a bit counter productive

Lost our best CB & top 5 CB in Europe (who hasn't even reached his theoretical peak age) for nothing!

I thought this guy only reserved his soliloquies for CHO.

Difference between Courtois & Christensen is one was bought and the other came through the academy. For that reason...they aren't treated the same.
In case you hadn't realised there's usually a stigma and added variables / obstacles with managers willing to give players from the academy a chance (regardless of what they've done as a loanee).
Took suspensions, rift, injuries to Luiz for Christensen to finally get a look-in under Conte, that's a lot of hurdles.
