Watch it at 41 seconds. You just know he's lost control of the ball, so they've cut it.

The guys useless.

Ha, It'd probably take both of them to be broke for him not to walk past me to be fair

Flashes of utter genius? Yes.

Constant brilliance and effectiveness? Perhaps not.

He'd certainly not be the first name in my 'world XI' side, if I had to choose one, as I think there are people out there much more effective.

I don't rate him as much as I used to. Brilliant player, but he appears to be running out of tricks and theres a lot of new talent that can show their trickery as well as their quality.

Consistently gets 20+ goals a season then his assists plus the space he creates for others with his skill. He's immense!

Watching the original clip reminded me of another clip a friend has been banging on about for ages. Just looked it up - if this is genuine he is something else!! (skip to 1 minute 20 seconds for the action!)
