At least he would head the ball. Pap of course, but his woes have taken on legendary proportions.
They were both shit & still are, but Savic was, & still is, worse. The difference is that Boateng actually has the ability & won't use it, which is arguably a bigger sin than Savic, who is just shit. And Boateng has pace.
Savic's statistics are fine, impressive even.
I have watched Savic knocking the ball around & thought "he looks nice & steady nowardays, confident" then the opponents have a decent attack & he makes an interception & you think "hmm, even looks quite good defensively" next attack, wins a header "hmmm good" next attack, shins the ball into his own face striker misses open net "hmmm, could just be unlucky" next attack, shits his pants for no reason & kicks ball into back of team mate "Jesus!". Then he continues, knocking the ball around no problem & looking fine & nice & calm.
I hope he plays like Bobby Moore the day the rags watch him.
