At first he was a bit of a cross merchant, but he's been very creative in terms of how he gets up the pitch with the ball, how he combines with teammates etc.Players score goals and make assists almost every game. What sets the quality, consistent players apart from the rest is whether they make the right decisions. This guy almost always makes the right choice.
Haha! That's the guy!Would love to hear Igulas thoughts on this performance.

Kind of like a stronger version of Waddle ?He sort of reminds in how he plays like a winger version of De Bruyne (not suggesting that level). Looks a bit gangly and awkward so you underestimate him but is very smart and can pass/shoot so well with decent underrated pace.
Half the board thought he was overrated. Proves that most fans know fuck all about football.
There's a big difference in over-rated and not being particularly impressed by someone though. Sometimes you can only go on what you see. The few times I saw him for Juventus he looked bang average. Clearly he had some ability as you would simply never play for that sort of club if you didn't. But I don't think too many would have predicted he would make quite the impact that he has already.
