I would have paid more for him

I kinda like him and want him to succeed ...probably because he is Welsh. ahh well
He would do well in Spain but he is faaaar too small to play CM in the Premier league. If he was 6'1 he'd be decent enough but in reality he is small, weak and pretty slow.

When you give him the time to turn and weigh up his passes he is a very good player. Unfortunately he has been found out and teams just keep their hard men close to him and he struggles.

He will be decent for teams who play at a high tempo or counter attacking but is practically useless when he plays for a team that tries to break down 10 men defenses most of the time.

Me too, and I'm sure there are a lot of managers that would agree. He is synonymous in the premier league.
