If he could defend he would of been one of the best about as hes crossing free kicks etc are top draw. Pace and defence lets him down. All the best if true. He looked happy though at the new kit launch laughing and joking around. Not sure why he would be used if hes leaving.
Lets not re-write history here just cos he's leaving. His crossing was never top draw he just smashed it as hard as he could and usually it never beat the first man. And his free kicks were the same. The odd one went in but most went into row Z. Same for his shooting. He scored the odd rocket goal but the vast majority was him shooting from 40 yards out and it going into orbit.
