The evidence that he is overrated BY US is mounting by the week. I'll be one of the first to admit I thought he was at the very least a top Championship player based on his Brighton feats - but even if you make excuses for him at Spurs, which I did, there are none at West Ham. When he has played, he's been very poor.
Quality still in my book, its so much harder to cut the mustard up front rather than say as a midfielder of defender, so much more is expected and when it dosent happen the inevitable abuse follows.
