He's sidelined for a while again - which creates a problem for us defensively, but an opportunity for Emre Can to maybe step up into that position and show us who's boss.
Cunt was made of adamantium when he was shite. Now he's invaluable, he's made of glass. Typical.

Brendan Rodgers has confirmed Lucas Leiva is facing a spell on the sidelines due to a groin injury - but Philippe Coutinho, Raheem Sterling and Adam Lallana are fit to face Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday.
Lucas was forced to leave the field after just 16 minutes of Saturday's Merseyside derby with Everton at Goodison Park because of an adductor problem. A scan today has revealed the Brazilian will be out of action for a 'little bit of time'.
However, there was better news regarding Coutinho and Sterling, both of whom picked up knocks against the Blues, while Lallana is expected to return to the fold for the visit of Spurs.
Rodgers told reporters at Melwood: "Lucas is one that will probably miss a little bit of time. We're just waiting on the exact results of the scan.
"All the others should be fine."
Meanwhile, journalists quizzed Rodgers on whether Daniel Sturridge could be handed a first start since returning from five months out recently.
The 25-year-old has made three substitute appearances following his comeback, and the manager refused to give anything away when it came to questions about a role from the off against Tottenham.
"You'll see tomorrow night," said Rodgers. "He's in a condition where he has been training for a little bit of time. There'll be a time where he will be able to start, whether it's tomorrow or whether it's at the weekend, you'll have to wait and see."
