Yes! Playing a bit further up has allowed him to demonstrate he is an excellent crosser of the ball. Nearly always beats the first man (others in the team don't!). Combined with being an excellent defender - he is the total player. On the odd occasion he will run straight at the defence - route one for goal. When he does this, it frightens and scatters defenders.

The moment it crossed the line, I was like yeah, yeah goal, now fuck that and get on with the celebration! I think I celebrated his celebration more than I celebrated the goal. I’ll write celebration just once more for good measure.

I think I love Jan! Should I tell my wife and kids?

He was so good Wednesday night just thinking about the game you can’t help but smile.

ESP when, manU, Chelsea and Arsenal were so shit, life’s so good!
