Praise where it's due and criticism where it's due.
I can't fathom how people expect a player, utlimately an employee, to be immune from criticism just becuase he's young, a top scorer, bla bla.
The double standards are sickening. Harry has been wasteful with chances and possession. Why not call him out on it?
I'm not saying burn him at the stake, but come on. You can't say things are rosey when they're not.

Agreed. There's a lot of nonsense about this, basically spouted by half wit pundits.

Essentially:
- since returning from injury, Harry hasn't been up to his usual standard
- he's still effective and is still scoring goals
- it's still been an outstanding season for him, given he's scored 28 goals

But people are allowed to comment to comment on the first point, otherwise what's the purpose of pundits. And basically these retards end up taking any negative comment and saying something like "It's just classic English attitude, he's being dragged the streets blah blah blah", when of course it's nothing like that

As always, it's somewhere in between.

Yes he's not been fantastic since he came back. But he's still scored 4 in his last 8.

I think the point about the criticism is, yes, you know, i know and he knows he isn't playing his best but do we have to keep going on about it in the media? He's a young man, playing in a position which relies heavily on confidence and he's carrying his nations hopes going into a world cup.

Let the lad play his way out of it. He's still scoring goals.
