Without him our midfield looks limp yes. There’s a decent argument that it looks limp with him too but we’ll park that for now. I just don’t think he’s actually played that well to be honest. He’s been fine but generally unremarkable for me, I don’t really see his ability to run as being worthy of a player of the year shout. It’s all opinion like, I’m not calling people out for it, I was just surprised. Personally I’d have Godfrey, DCL, James, and Keane and sigurdsson all well above him. And anyone who’s familiar with my posts will know some of those players are a long way from being favourites of mine.
