Putting aside the fact I detest the little turd, I often wonder just how good he really is, and whether he'd get a regular start at the likes of Barca and Real. I know all Liverpool fans think he's world-class, but I'm not so sure. If memory serves me right, he had a good scoring record in the Netherlands but that certainly hasn't translated too well over here. And considering the one thing he's good at, that is causing havoc in the opposition's half, his direct assists are really low too (3 this year according to a quick google).
He's a very good player, but not a great, and I honestly wouldn't have him at City. Aren't Juve rumoured to be putting together a 30-mil Euro offer for him?
