James Milner

For me,a big part of his improvement is the fact he now appears more at ease and comfortable with his surroundings and company.

He strikes me as a very down to earth lad who may have been somewhat 'startruck' initially.Now he realises,and accepted,he's as deserving as anyone to wear our shirt the quality has begin to shine.

Long may it continue,a great pro and a great assett to the team.
 
Immense again,only behind Zab in terms of heart/passion - he could easily have Argentinian in his passport!

Milner's like a harder working version of Zaba, albeit with not quite as much passion.
"Ineffective, no end product," is how I would sum up Nasri for much of this season, Milner is exactly the opposite.
 
With the "walkabout" midfielders and winger-fullbacks we have, James Milner is worth his weight in gold to this team.

I would still love to have heard what he said to Yaya last weekend, because I'll bet it was spot on....

"Hey, you lazy bastard, when you give a shit pass and give the ball away, like you just did to me, get on your bike and defend. Or are you too good to defend, you big soft ****?!" And then, when Yaya had a go at him, I'll bet Milner could not understand a fucking word he was saying!

As others have said, an honest, 95 minute shift player, like Zaba.

his work rate was brilliant, again though his final ball was atrocious, he plays a blind cross into the box 90% of the time without looking up and he consistently waits for balls to feet which results in losing possession, work on that and he would be a top top player!!!!

He was except for when he tried to curl that one into the top corner when he had three City players completely unmarked on the edge of their six yard box, I could've killed him at that moment. Get your head up Jimmy.
 
Can't remember who that Villa right back was, but the way Milner skinned him on one occasion was pure quality.
 
Milner frustrates me a little.

Time after time he gets into great positions down the flanks but rarely delivers the killer ball. Too many cut out crosses etc.

I prefer him in a central midfield role - think he could do Barry/Garcia role better than them.
 
Up there as one of my favourites at the moment. We're better with him. When him and Silva play close together they are excellent. No finished product is nonsense.
