Pie is served but get in line .
He is 5 yards quicker this season looks decent, looking for the ball now and passing quicker, I guess an injury has that effect on youwell i might as well be the c**t.....
I think the praise for recent performances is as premature as the criticism from last season. Personally i think he has done better this season but for me he was quite poor last season so youd be a bit miffed if he hadnt picked his game up (sorted his head out, whatever the problem was).
he still looks ponderous but more decisive. that is where his improvement has come. he is slow, his passes move slowly and he appears to do octopus sliding tackles in slow motion. Now, away in Europe he was ideal; he slowed it down in Germany and restored stability in the 2nd half - perfect. Against Newcastle i actually thought he was completely bypassed in the opening 30 but come our dominance he was perfect at shutting the rare counter down.
so there we have it, i think he is slow but that suits when needed. i still think he has some improving to do and i look forward to seeing it.
