But imagine Vinny Kompany playing in a commanding CB role, winning headers, making last ditch tackles, playing the ball out etc etc in the first half. Then in the second half he gets pushed into left midfield as an attacking midfielder and looks a threat, playing the right balls, creating space and pushing up onto the opposition to get the ball back, then creating a goal with a left foot cross, before scoring one himself with a curling right footer.
Yes, Vinny I think, with a bit more about him in the final third, or possibly Gerrard if he was a bit taller and better in the air. Truth is, he was a bit special and a true honour to have watched him. Some stars don't shine for very long, but whilst they do they are simply blinding.
Still, not as if that is that and nothing more. He's still carved out 2 or 3 careers for himself since retiring from playing. Not bad going really.
This ^^^^^ about as good as it gets to explaining what a pure talent Lakey was
