He's has had a few pretty good games this season as well. But like CK says, he's pretty much a generic, non-description player. But he's humble and knows his place in the squad. So it's all good.
It's easy to be solid when your team is the one always attacking and you take no risks whatsoever. Padoin does everything the simple and easy way. Which i'm not saying is bad. What i'm saying is you can't expect him to do more than just that like people here were.
