I love that you cite 'fan favourite' and 'passion for the club' as if these are in any way important things. If he's not showing it on the pitch (which IMO he hasn't been yet) then nothing else matters. If David Bentley had 'passion for the club' would you have wanted him starting?
Not that that's in any way relevant because, as above, he's been injured.
