I think a lot of the criticism of CMS is unjustified. He was playing for a mentally arthritic manager who's sides invariably took 20 minutes to get the ball to the halfway line, thus making it impossible for us to capitalise on his pace. I believe that CMS was worth the money when we bought him...
His goal at Burnley was one of the greatest goals that I've ever seen. His attitude and work rate were an example to all. He just happened to have the misfortune of playing for a mentally arthritic manager.
