So his entire form (or lack of) between September and mid-December should be totally ignored?
And January can be ignored too, February now as we’ve realised he had crap games then too. We’ll write off Brighton too because he was only terrible for 30 minutes.
We’ll also say he was fantastic during March - September when we played for 2 months.
Based on all of that, you’re right. He’s a constant performer and a top four player. Sorry, I was wrong.
I don’t think his form was bad then. If he doesn’t play generally speaking we don’t win. I’ve mentioned these stats loads but I’ll do so again. He increases our win % by about 40-50%. When he’s in the team our average points total works out around 28 points over a season and 72 when he’s in the team. Pretty incredible when in some of those games he’s been playing when not quite fit. No other player in the league has the same effect on their team as he does for us.
