He looked worse than Bernadeschi for the first 4 months of the season... it’s not really a wonder that people were annoyed by it and writing him off. Some of the attacks on him were just plain stupid, but given that he had an awful 2018-19 season, then a great 2019-20 season, then an abysmal first 4 months of this season... well, he certainly deserved a lot of the criticism. Just like he’ll deserve a lot of praise if he finishes the season strong.
