I've nothing against the chap either. I'm just a little bit disappointed in how he turned out as a player, because when he was at Palace I (and many others) were repeatedly led to believe that this guy was the new Xavi / Iniesta / Makalele all rolled into one. It was apparently a privilege to be...
And then some.
Perhaps he'll follow in their superstars now legendary steps to Man Utd reserves, Cardiff and then...oh.
Or perhaps the much-vaunted Joniesta's Championship / L1 odyssey, taking in Ipswich, Forest, Sunderland, MKD and then even Charlton.
That production line of talent seemingly...
Careful there chap.
The Goonsquad have already branded him the new Cafu / Maldini / Carlos Alberto. As we all know, its highly unusual for them to exaggerate the talents of their younger players, so we can certainly expect a stellar career in the making again here.
