What can we say about Wes Hoolahan
v. Cherries a joy to behold,
And in that mood, an unstoppable man
And still just thirty-three years old

Most midfield maestros would top well before
They enter their fourth decade,
But he looks younger and hungry for more
Game time, each week he´s on parade

And give him time and space as Bournemouth did
Then no-one is better equipped,
To pull the strings in our attacking mid
And in with a goal, he chipped

One can´t help wonder if Mr. A. Neil
Again must take some credit here,
Rejuvenating OAP´s to steal
The show, is a boon in this tier

So off to Anfíeld, and a bigger stage
Where, who's to say, he won´t emerge,
As a leading light, despite stature and age
To help us continue our surge. :) OTBC - INIT

ps:

I was surprised to see Bradders departing
But I didn´t miss him one bit,
It gave more room for others to be starting
And those who did, came up a hit. <ok>

No matter which decade, he's in the pink and has definitely changed my opinion of him! I really thought he was over the hill, shows how much I know!<doh>

Must admit that two seasons ago I was calling for him to be replaced, but AN has worked wonders with him and he is, arguably, playing the best football of his career now. The set up with two out and out wingers gives him that little extra space in the middle and he is taking great advantage of it.
 
Super job RBF. I must admit that after the shannanagins with PL and Villa a couple of years ago, I would have been happy to see him go but he has turned the whole thign around and much credit has to go to AN. Wes is now truly back on song.
 
Good to see him with such a hunger as well, but I just hope fans don´t expect him to produce a Bournemouth performance every week, as not every team will be quite as obliging as they were in giving him the freedom of the park. But if others do, then he can be incredibly influential.

Yes, Bournemouth were obliging, but it's not as easy to mark Wes out of the game now that we have either Howson or Dorrans able to get forward to support the attacks and two wingers stretching the defence as well.
