fucking lol'd mate haha
I have not kept up with you chaps tbh so i was wondering what is the genuine non internet kneejerk reaction of proper Chelsea fans regarding him ?
He seems an excellent supplier but i feel he needs to be a finisher more.
We generally think he still has his talent, skill and physical assets for the most part (bit slower than before) but he's never going to work out here. He's afraid to shoot. His normally excellent technique just goes out the window in the box. His decision making in the box is also dire. He's been an enormous waste of time and money and should move to either Italy or Spain (IMO) as soon as possible. If City bought him you'd regret every second of it.
Nothing against him, he is (was) a terrific player. But the media character assassination, the pressure, the price tag, the poor form of the team in general; all added up to completely fuck his chances here over. He even works hard but it just wont happen for him.
