I love skill players and I'd die to see stuff like this at Eastlands, but isn't the problem with this kind of skill player that the Premier League just reacts by simply barging these players off the ball and uses physical force to prevent them getting away with this stuff?
Maybe it's just because I'm skeptical about ITK claims, but this is the kind of thing pundits are always saying when there is talk of skill players coming to England. I remember when the Kaka saga was at it's peak, every other hour there was a story coming out about how Kaka was going to be forced off every ball and would leave England after a drab season, covered in bandages from the physical nature of the game that he wouldn't acclimatise to.
I'm not trying to put a downer on proceedings, just want to make sure that this guy would actually be the real deal and not just one more player who couldn't get used to English football.
