Yeah, the traditional way, as per Clucas, mason and Henriksen, is to slate them from the outset and only grudgingly accept they may be alright after a suitable period of abuse.
See also Michael Turner, Damien Delaney and about 372 other players.
Oh I agree , loads of players written off too early , that seems to be the way here though

Proof positive, if ever it were needed, that the majority of football fans are ****s. A constant diet of Sky & MOTD punditry has turned them into armchair experts who love nothing better than to pontificate sagely over the perceived flaws in their latest target.

And remember the abuse that our flavour of the month, Mr Jak got from most on here when he first broke into the team! Give Niasse a chance.

Do you regret making those uninformed and judgmental comments?

How were they uninformed? By definition, as I was informed about the lack of a first touch, as well as watching him in his games for Everton, it's pretty much the opposite.
 
Who informed you with relevant information you could rely on before criticising him heavily and writing him off? You listened to, or read, bullshit and then used that to tell us what a lost cause he was. That isn't being informed, that's being gullible and daft.

Must have missed him starring with a hattrick.

He's played twenty minutes mate, take a deep breath and see how he goes. Listening to two PL managers, and an entire fan base doesn't make me uninformed. Think the word you are looking for is ill-informed and even then I wasn't. I also wasn't the only one on here saying he was crap. I am though one of the first to front up in this thread and say I was pleasantly surprised.

I also said I hoped he proved me wrong and scored a bunch so not entirely sure what you're getting at.

Uninformed, ill-informed, or just utter bullshit, it makes little difference. You had him soundly condemned without giving him a chance and you claimed he had no first touch even though the YouTube clip clearly showed otherwise. You only saw him for a few minutes on Saturday so what changed your mind, do you not need another six weeks to decide?
 
That seems mightily off balance though, should and can are two very different things. If society suggests it's alright for a woman to hit a man because the man is stronger and can take it, then there's something very, very wrong with society.

I think it's more that some women take advantage of the rule a man shouldn't hit a woman.

Perhaps, it's sort of an unwritten rule that at some point we decided on as a society. Just think it's odd that nobody chipped in and added "well don't hit men either".
