so Iwan scored a goal every five games in his sh*t first season

RVW is scoring a goal every 20 so far. Or a goal every 11 if you only count the games he starts. Still at least twice as bad as Iwan.

(And to repeat myself - Brom's point below about different leagues is completely irrelevant. If you judge Iwan to have subsequently been a success - well, he was only ever a success at exactly that level. So either it counts or it doesn't. We bought RVW to be a success at premier league level.)

I do take me cago en ti's point that he *might* come good. I'm just saying that even if you point at Iwan as a reason to keep the faith - perhaps the biggest example anyone can think of a player who had a bad first season and then came good - even he actually did much better than RVW has.
