He's in the twos for a reason. What's he played, a 100 games? Surely we know by now?

A bit rich.When he is on like he was when he had 35 possies in a match he can play the game and look like a class player but its been a long while between drinks waiting for another great game like that one. We need players who have more than pretty skills on a fine day and players who dont pick and choose when to display them.
He could probably be the new Lewis Jetta on the WC list and be a similar type player IMHO.

Not sure when the last time was though.
He has a bad habit now of going short, and leaving his kicks even shorter, bouncing it to teammates.

Too true and too conservative - turnover merchant when there is a chance to use his kicking skills to create something.
