[QUOTE="TRF_RC, post: 401861, member: 47315"] Lol, that's 2 people that's disagreed with me. For me, i'm comparing his play today compared to how he used to be a few years ago. His breaks used to potent, as he'd run into players only to break from them again. This season he seems to run into walls and when he realises that he's not getting passed the advantage line he ends up kicking the ball away (he's not guilty of being the only one to kick aimlessly tonight though) and passing to whoever is supporting him. The only time i saw him using the ball positively was on a turnover ball, counter attacking when he played more instinctually. He didn't have enough time to think about the ball in his hand and he did what came naturally: he ran. It seems like when he gets time on the ball his mind races with a lack of confidence and he gets rid of it before he gets into contact. For me, as a critic of the once-great winger, he didn't do anything tonight to keep me quiet as per his performance. [/QUOTE]
