His defiencies so far have been poor first touch, poor passing, "dribbling" straight into players and losing possession over and over in almost every game he's played. Only a blind man could blame his team mates for those mistakes.
He got chances under AVB, so stop this myth of him being mismanaged. He was truly awful almost every time he got a chance - his touch was poor and he couldn't dribble a corpse in those matches.
People saying he's a "thinking man's" Bale, and will be better than Bale and on the level of Messi and C Ronaldo in a few years. Well, the less said about that the better I think.
Having said that, it's obvious that there's more in him than what he's shown so far and that he's struggling to adapt. But blaming AVB and his team mates is lazy and ignorant. I hope he comes good and plays well for us. No one wants a 30 mill pound failure.
Ahem, I think you'll find it's £25m with add ons.
