Of course you have to take the expectancy into account when determining someones contribution. If we bought Messi for £200m we'd expect the best player in the world based on price and previous performances. If he then contributed exactly as Berbatov has the last 4 seasons he'd be a monumental failure.

Likewise if Obertan would have contributed exactly the same as Berbatov I'd see him as a real success.
