Never been his biggest fan but to me he gives us a creative talent capable of putting in a defensive, more so than Ji Sung Park.
Valencia like to use Abelda as their creative talent from deep and Anderson did a good job holding him up. He may be quite poor shooting wise but hes never shy ed away from a tackle before. His best position has been debated at length, but he often seems to turn in good performances in games where we are playing defensively as a whole, and therefore the attacking role is still broadly defensive-minded.
Now this is not always essential in Premier League games where we play lower opposition at home and he needs to create. Thats a whole nother side to his game he needs to fix. But its no coincidence he has his best games against Arsenal and Liverpool. Just like Park, he may be a vital big game player for us that might be worth justifying his position at this club
