So when's he going to perform in a competitive match against an organised defence?

Yes he can take Blackpool (Conceded the most goals last season) or Inter (New manager, uncompetitive game) to pieces but we have paid more than £20 million for a world cup winner who goes missing when the going gets tough.

This has to be a joke right?

This thread should be fun.

Wondered when it was going to start

Hopefully it will be met by sympathy and not abuse

Not one of his better games but he needs some help. Opposition know that if they shut him down we haven't really got any other outlet.

Compare and contrast to United.

Jesus Christ, that's me out of here.

why don't we just call every MCFC player rubbish after every game.

Great support.

He probably held the ball up more than any other player on the pitch today. Noticed a few times where he had the ball and looked around for a central option but found no one and passed back or sideways.

Hell, his free kick was responsible for our first goal.
