He's so far ahead of everyone else in the side it's embarrassing, and should be playing Championship this year. Only reason he isn't is Power and Sherwood's love in.
Mystifying that he's not fancied by a lot of our fans.
I'm one of those who doesn't rate him as highly as others. There's no doubt he's skillful but he's got a hell of a gob on him and he does like to run down blind alleys. Maybe thats due to the lack of movement around him but maybe its due to the fact that his decision making is extremely poor. His corners are absolute trash and his scoring rate from free kicks is probably no better than if we let one or two others loose on them,, although specatacular when they go in. He's also a cheat who goes down very easily and sometimes embarassingly. He's also a liability sometmies when you're a goal up by constantly playing himself into trouble.
There's nothing there though that he can't sort out if he wants to.
