James has been in this league for ten years now yet he has the best years of his career still ahead of him as he's only twenty-five years old. The guy is just brilliant. He plays like a fan would play, like every single action he does and every blade of grass he covers really matters. He rarely puts a foot wrong. He isn't a dirty player. He never dives. He never moans about the fact he's not always in the starting XI. He never moans about playing out of position (his best position is central midfield). There was a picture of the squad training at Carrington last season in the freezing cold and James was the only player in just t-shirt and shorts (everyone else had snoods, traccy bottoms, wooly hats, jumpers, training zip-up tops etc. on).
Needless to say; I fucking love James Milner. It's good to see a thread about a player that gets more than four or five pages of praise when there is a certain other player who has got about two hundred pages of praise (as well as about the same amount of shit, it must be said) when he literally does fuck all compared to the likes of Milner.
