If he isn't playing it can only be a good thing, not that he is a great player but it is just that former player curse. It also says Sears is out, didn't realise he still playered. He was so over hyped.
Sears has played over 140 first team games now and scored only 14 goals. As a striker that is bad. He needs some muscle on himself, and perhaps if he grows his hair like Fellaini it will stop him looking like a dwarf footballer.
