Not afraid to admit that I was worried his best days were beyond him but if we just give him the freedom to play them he will be brilliant. His talent was never in question.
It's just nice having players who are intelligent enough to understand...
Completely set the tone with that move in the second into third minutes where he lost the ball and won it back by sheer force of will. Dropped deep to win the ball back in the corner by doing the dirty work.
And on top of that changed everything...
Such an intelligent player, seems too have so much time on the ball, draws in players, creates space for others and he tracked back well and got stuck in. And his fecking calf’s are tremendous. I think I’m in love.
