you said today proves he should be here next season - now I've read it properly, you didn't say that and I do agree we shouldn't be getting rid till summer. apologies.
For us to even think about retaining him next season he needs to put in a run of consistent goal scoring form, one swallow (even two) does not a summer make. He's made these contributions before and not followed it up. So, it is entirely relevant to what you said.
