Just back….. no humble pie. To add: He’s not a bastard hybrid of Patrick Viera and Xavi just yet. Doing well currently. I’m yet to see him dominate a whole game, maybe he never will, and that’s fine. What he is clearly doing now is using his 6ft 4 athleticism to impose himself, he wasn’t at all before. That is allowing him to do the bits he has in his locker that will make him stand out. He’s learning. So I also need to give credit to the coaching staff. Props. But today I saw something else as well. Something down to attitude and approach. He was barking and cajoling; he was encouraging and supporting; he was looking to dictate to his teammates and frustrated when they didn’t do what he felt they should. Now THAT tells me far more than 45 yard pinpoint outside of the foot chipped passes. Keep it up and we might, just might, be onto something here……. [Post edited 4 Oct 23:03]
