I don't think it's so much him improving this season, I think it's positive regression back to his abilities. There's no doubt he's improved over the past 2/3 years, but if you only look at it as an improvement you fail to recognize that he's shown a similar level before.
-He was great at Sunderland (their player of the season).
-He was great in his short time at the start of last season, then got injured. When he came back, he played in a team where the morale had gone and under two managers with contrasting systems where, let's face it, no one played good. Unfortunately for whatever reason, because he's English and had one or two shockers in this time, he is made the scapegoat and the vast majority of people said he was shit.
-He has been great this season again.
I also think he is a good character. For one, he comes across well in interviews. He doesn't have a social media account which suggests he's not one to get involved in all the fuss and BS that can come about from that. He just seems to get on with his football. I think he's also a nice guy, I remember Naughton posting this on Instagram, a gift from Danny.

The people that just slagged him off all summer and begged for him to be sold were either 1) wrong, 2) extremely shortsighted, or 3) dumb.
