He's one player I initially kept telling myself was better than he really is. It took a while to see that he's pretty damn subpar in most departments and his supposed redeeming quality of passing is non existent save for about 4 games a season
We need to get over the fact that deep lying playmakers are redundant unless they're elite distributers who are pretty damn rare
Holding mids should be ball winners first and foremost. As long as they're competent on the ball that's all you need.
