I never said he would play into his 40's, but I most certainly think he is capable of doing it. Bergkamp created 20 G/A at 36 years old. Zidane retired at 35 arguably at his peak
Pace reliant players decline rapidly around 29-31. Rooney, Owen, Mata, etc were all past it before their 30's. Sigurdsson in my opinion is just getting started at 29 years old.
Saying he goes missing in games in beyond ridiculous. There wasn't a game this season where he didn't show up & deliver.
Against Fulham as an example, everybody singled him out for 'not delivering' even though he literally only received 13 passes from his team mates throughout the entire match.
That's right. 13 passes. Our best player was starved off the ball from his own team mates. Digne had well over 90 touches that game & everybody else got on the ball.
Yet nobody created anything besides Sigurdsson, who put DCL 1on1 & also found himself in a perfect goal scoring situation. Gueye however opted to shoot instead of passing it to him.
In the span of 1½ minutes Sigurdsson created the equalizer & found himself perfectly positioned to score the winner.
Instead DCL wasted his 1on1 & Gueye selfishly didn't pass the ball. Yet Sigurdsson was taken off after 74 minutes despite creating 2 chances, one of them being a big chance.
I'd love for you to substantiate any of your claims of 'Sigurdsson going missing' but the truth is you have nothing to say.
And just like that @RickyRyder is back lol
