How often did he get the winning goal for us? How often did he do anything to get in the news (other than gently tap a penalty straight to the keeper during a FA Cup semi-final match)?
In fact how often did players not associated with being goal-scorers (ie defenders) get on the score sheet while he was playing?! He had his moments but they few and far between.
I concede it may have been a "1st season" thing which is why I say give him until Christmas.
