He's a bit marmite. Love him or not. He was above average last season. The season before that we barely saw him because of a back injury and this season he has a hip injury. Barely seen him. The issue here isn't, will he play for us again? More the fact that I don't think he has bought enough to warrant staying with us. Im going to upset the pro lamela camp and say I haven't missed him. He doesn't bring enough to make him missable. He infuriates more than than he makes me salivate. I don't think he is fast enough. I don't think he can shoot well enough. And I don't think he can pass well enough. He's our player and if he stays i will support him. But he certainly isn't someone I will pine for when/if he goes. I remain unconvinced he is what we need. However i would like to eat my words as I want all players to succeed at this club. I just can't see him pushing on like Bale did. And yes I get that he isn't bale. but I just don't see what the fuss is about with him.
