I don't watch a lot of foreign football but do listen to a few podcasts, so not my opinion but of others I respect - heard he has been really good on the left over the past couple of months and is still running his socks off.You're forgetting the fact that he's been absolute rubbish for the last couple of seasons.
I think as a team we are missing a Naybet / Davids player who may not be at their best but brings something to the collective.
