2g 5a last 250 mins!

3g 6a last 430 mins! Level he's putting now is prime Lampard. 3x90mins this week. Him and Caicedo only players to play every minute. Essential. Both are now what we wanted from beginning.

Some actually wanted him sold not so long ago, making him sound like he was some Mount level garbage player.

Fanbase didn’t know how to see what say ten of us in total it seems across the whole of online maintained from the start and throughout — his profile is like Lampard, Gerrard - and there are x y z factors not worth the time going over again that made clear that short term form was only that - idiots - sincerely — and, further, this is a player with tools physically and mentally beyond the sum of what football usually puts up. People have no idea. Pretty much every consensus the fanbase ever take is categorically completely wrong. 
 

He deserves fans who understand football I’ll say that. Deserves Madrid, the sum is similar but way more people studied in excellency, so recognise it and celebrate it vs look at it like a boogy monster turned chicklet.

I wouldn't worry most of the fanbase didn't want Lampard to begin/after his first year or so either. Some players take a while for people to get. I have always stuck up for Enzo, Noni and Jackson for instance. Caicedo on the other hand took me a long time to get as his skill on the ball isn't at a level that I like in a CM, which then meant I overlooked his other skills. I would say I am typically quite good at judging players, but some can be harder to judge than others - especially if you're biased on certain traits.

I'd go a bit further: there is no such entity as "the fanbase."

There are no "fickle fans" as some like to address here. Fans are different and think differently about players and way to play, have their own preferences. The club should largely ignore fans and mostly does.

This is the same everywhere.

I'm sure the decision was made his side pretty suddenly over the last few months, behind her back.
