He hasn't had a proper chance with us since we were promoted BUT he was also on trial and in jail which obviously affected his chances
I suspect that we will never see the best of Madine.
There are a fair percentage of Wednesday fans who don't like Madine & will pretty much do what it takes to drive him out. He hasn't helped himself with his off the field behaviour but this season he has tried to buckle down & in his limited appearances, he has played well.
He has gone to Coventry and scored two & got an assist in four matches but whatever he does there will not satisfy the haters, who will say that L1 is his level. While Nuhui is a slightly below average SBC striker, I have no idea how good Madine can be. He has played to a similar standard to Nuhui so far, I cannot help but think that there is a lot more to come if he is given a prolonged opportunity.
After promotion, DJ sidelined Madine, first in favour of COG then Bothroyd, Sidibe, Wickham & Howard. His final start under DJ was his best at this level where he was MOTM against Barnsley & scoring a goal. SG has only given him one start in his year as manager (v Watford). He did well in that match & in the 45 minutes he got at Leeds but I always felt that SG only played him so he could say that he had given him a chance so he could discard him with impunity.
SG's judgement has to be questioned. GTF added nothing. Hope added nothing yet still Madine hasn't had a real chance. COG has still played over 50% more minutes for Wednesday at this level than Madine while Nuhui has over four times as many SBC minutes as Madine. Even short term loan players like Wickham & Lita have had more play time than Madine. Wierd that we gave Madine another chance after his jail time yet haven't given him a chance to prove himself on the pitch.
I think his best chance is to knuckle down at Coventry, score more goals & either get a transfer or hope that SG gets sacked & he gets a real chance at Wednesday. Otherwise, I see another player with potential leaving for free in the summer to be replaced by the next GTF.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
but as im superior i must write this down 
he has had chances 
he played bad 50% of these games and played ok on the other 50% of these games both last season and this season . he has scored about 2 goals in this time !! and the 1 that i can remember was aginst Notts county . his attitude for these games also has been 50 % good 
is nuhui better than him ? id say yes because he scores more and puts a better shift in !! is lavery better than him ? yes by a country mile
