He does absolutely nothing for 90 minutes! Against Newcastle he may have got a goal and an assist in extra time but he was horrid for the full match. Hoping to see him gone by next season.
This is simply not true.
It is.
He gave the ball away more than any other player, was dispossessed more than any other player. Only Pants and our fullbacks, one of which was subbed the last 10 minutes of the 90, had a worse passing success.
Like many have said before, his goal and assist seem to paper over the cracks, because for 90 minutes he was very, very poor. If it was a league game and finished after the 90 minutes, no one could defend his overall display.
