I can only go on what I've seen him do when I've watched him. I don't need you to agree with my opinion, but I can't pretend I think something else when I don't.
I do think some people are unable to be impartial about a players abilities for whatever reason. I've seen enough touches and thoughtful play from Madine in the few times he's played to think he may have a chance once he's had a pre-season with us. It's impossible to really understand what a player is capable of when they join in a high pressure situation in January and have to try and understand how their team mates play with no practice matches to work on things.
I've said earlier he may not be able to make the step up but I think writing him off is premature at this stage.
