He'd still done nothing wrong up to that point though - had come into the side, got goals, got sidelined by a bad injury, and come back into the side and was scoring again and getting back to full strength.
Valuations can only be assessed over a significant time period* - otherwise in August 2012 we'd have been able to confidently say Papiss Cisse was our best striker of all time.
*There are obviously exceptions to this role, ie after 10 games of seeing the likes of Luque, Marcelino, Riviere, Boumsong etc, we could easily conclude they were a waste of money and we're never going to get better....Isak was nothing like these however and had played well.
Whether he did anything wrong is irrelevant and nobody had implied he did mate .
We've gone full circle at last though
He's starting to prove his worth which is great.
