Another point of view is that he was the weak link getting targeted by that ball over the top( how did Balotelli not score one of them?) That tactic forced us deeper, and led to the midfield being lost. Agree he gave everything and put good blocks in, but hopefully that was his last game.

That pair of Clowns aren't fit to bear the same name as that gentleman and giant of the game. Hes an example to all footballers as to how to conduct themselves.
Standards have slipped at an alarming rate in recent years. Do yourself a favour and don't even compare our current brat with the legend of Sir Les. Its not even funny mate.
