Incredible player, possibly the best we have ever had.
The last 12 months or so have seen us develop a new style, a new way of playing.
In a way, the transition has been made somewhat easier whilst he's been unavailable. He's been out for so long, the time is right. he has been a colossus in the modern game, but the injuries have fucked him. He now moves like an arthritic 60 year old, sadly.
Without the injuries, he'd been bearing down on Shearer's record, no fucking doubt about it - despite coming to the Premiership at 23. What a debut. Those two goals against Swansea.
All the best, mate.
Love this picture. The embodiment of a true legend.
I will always remember Sergio at his best in that kit. He was unplayable in that season, just a shame he kept getting niggling injuries throughout it.
