He was PIVOTAL in our advancement to where we are today.
Our best European performance in recent history (4-0 v Porto), De Jong played, and unsurprisingly, he was a boss. In Europe especially, you need a mobile player who can actually cut up play and win you back the ball. It's so unbelievably important. I feel we lost a player who could really add a certain bite to the midfield, as well as an important dressing room figure who so many players said he was the entertainer of the squad and kept everyone's spirits up.
whilst he was very good in that game, remember that against napoli away, he was completely outclassed by their midfield, garcia isnt good enough for us, we needed a stellar signing for the CM role,
