I think he's maybe always been both overrated and yet so much potential.
Most of the first Champ winning season he baffled me as to how he got on the pitch and in the last 14 or so games Onel fully supplanted him starting on the left and saw us to the title. 1 goal and 2 assists in 18 starts.
Then he started the first Prem season and looked good, getting credit for goals against big clubs BUT the goals were mostly 6 yard boxers and could be argued to be "system" goals with Todd left an easy finish off Pukki work. 6 goals and 2 assists in 30 starts.
I think 1 of those credited assists he never actually passed it, Pukki pinched it off his toe as their runs crossed over and scored!
Then relegation and he starts playing up and gets dropped and Farke.makes the comment that he could play Zimmerman on the wing as Zimbo had as many assists as Todd in the last year!!
Ultimately Todd doesn't get a move and gets 6 goals and 6 assists in 30 starts most of them came against crap teams.
All gone wrong since, 5 starts last year, 9 this, no goals, no assists.
