He's played 40 games for us, that's enough to be allowed an opinion on him surely? Obviously anyone (of any age) can improve and prove you wrong, but i'm not sure it's unfair to judge him on 40 games. When we're talking about poor previous players nobody has to caveat their opinions with 'well to be fair Tony Thomas/Kroldrup/Stracqualursi/Keeley/Bernie Wright never got the chance to play 100 games for us so it's unfair to judge them' do they?

None of the ones you listed were young players making their way up the ranks though.

He is now at the age where he needs to be looking at playing every week and at Schalke he has pretty much made the RB role his and he has come on from there.

These things do make a difference. More confidence, more experience etc. Coleman was rubbish when he first came in, it took a loan at Blackpool to get him ready for the full time job.

As for Kroldrup. he was just one of those who didn't fit, he wasn't a bad player as such.

They can make a difference. Not do make a difference. The distinction is important.
 


Thought he was fine second half, took some time to get going first half, not surprising really as he obviously wasn't expecting to get on so early...
Think he lost possession everytime he was on the ball or involved in play. Made a decent run at the end and definitely improved but was shambolic. Its saddening because he is a classy player and you don't see him often look so out of his depth. Maybe hes carrying an injury or fatigue or something?
