I am not arguing that he is the best around in his role or that we couldn’t possibly upgrade. What I am saying is that much of the criticism is hugely exaggerated, fails to recognise the impact the poor performances in other positions has upon any player, particularly one tasked to do so much with very little respite and simply doesn’t hold up to proper scrutiny.
Nice little video too that definitely doesn’t show him taking the ball in tight spaces, turning to progress the ball, making forward passes or any of the other things he apparently rarely or never does.
