The fans that have already declared him useless will now justify that opinion until he’s no longer with the club.
Even if we’re top of the league we’ll get the old ‘I could have that squad top of the league with those players.’
The jury is still out for me with SM. Comparing him with LW at this point is unfair. SM came into a club with high expectations and low morale/confidence/form.
If we’re comparing him to LW then the start of this season is a fair like for like.
