Piijt
Player Valuation: £20m
I reckon Pienaar has done better than Arteta this season easily (no wind up Mike, for once mate). Along with Carsley and Lescott, he has been one of our players of the season. Every time I get to watch him he really makes an impression on me, an absolute steal if we get him for under three million when you consider the quality he has and the impact he makes on our team.
He really is that important.
I agree 100%. He never stops running, chasing the ball down better than anyone else, plays left or right, has a beautiful touch and can deliver a corner as well as Arteta although he doesn't read the game quite as well at him. We will miss this little guy, a key player. Let's only hope we can keep him for next season, with his profile right now his price must be increasing by the week.
