He was definitely decent. Its not his quality that makes people think he is bad.
He should change his name to Asier Mundobarrieta and get a wig and play the exact same way, and people will say "decent midfielder, at least better than that Stephens fella!"
I was waiting for someone to not understand that a midfielder cant play 8 games in 30 days after a 3 month break.
He will be missed but players need to be rested every now and then when its so tight between the games.
They are a better opponent for us than Man United as they dont quite have the same pace. Losing is still likely though, obviously.
Curious to see how Potter rotates the squad as someone will need to be fit against City as well.
