One of the best all round footballing performances I've ever seen. His balance and close control are superb but his reading of the game is phenomenal, he knows exactly when he can control the ball out in front of him and start moving forward and knows when he needs to kill it dead. His work rate was unbelievable, frequently chasing three men and always getting back over to the left to cover Clichy. Even still, he had the energy left to drift inside and pick two brilliant passes for Dzeko, who thankfully buried the second opportunity. He ran the game, a truly magnificent player.
