Running short of superlatives , we did not play well today by a long chalk but Merlin dragged a performance out of the team , the Premier league will be a lot poorer for David not gracing our shores , 400 games and you could count on one hand the actual stinkers he has played. King of all Premier league midfielders , Scholes , Gerrard , Zola , Cantona etc., eat your hearts out , simply the best. But the media would never accept this , he simply plays for the wrong club , if he was a Rag or Dipper he would have Balon D'Ors and POTY trophies in abundance.
