You called him a mid-tier PL striker, mate. You didn't say he was playing like one.
Everyone else knew he was great, but just suffering from lack of form/service at the time.
Fair enough. I still think he could go either way - it's the application of his talent. He needs to be consistent in the league, instead of being consistently awful.
Two really good games on the spin and, more importantly, today was in the league, so let's see him keep it up. If he does, we're a different Everton and it's a sound £28m investment.
