Legitimately improved, even not looking at the numbers, which are up across the board, you could just see it watching the games.
Still unconvinced he is a long term player for us, however this season was definitely a good start to proving otherwise.
6.5/10
Are his numbers up im not so sure on that. His numbers remain alarmingly low imo.
He actually managed to be competetive thats his improvement.
I have a lot who fall into the category of it should not be too hard to get a reasonable upgrade. Still think he is there.
Did enough this year to save his arse but boy he needs to continue to improve.
Literally all of the stats posted to open this thread are UP from every other season. Unless the definition of up has changed recently, then yes, his numbers are up
WEll bugger me his numbers are at the top of the page so hang draw and quarter me for not noticing.
You in all seriousness are not basing improvement on those minimalistic increses are you. As i said his numbers remain alarmingly low.
His numbers in anyones language are unacceptable.
I did say that I could see it watching the games and the numbers backed it up that he improved this season.
I’m not a big fan, never have been but I can also recognise that he showed improvement this season and if he can keep doing that, maybe he’ll prove me and all the other doubters wrong.
I think most are saying he improved at least physically by actually competeing at contests.
I'm saying it again but we have so many players who just do not get enough ball.
Im not sold on his footskills or his numbers which as you say have minimally improved in some areas but just are not good enough.
He is 23 and as i said atm he is very much in what i call upgrade territory. We have far too many in this area.
Like everyone i hope like hell he can keep improving i really think he needs to. If he stagnates next year id say time to move him on.
