For me is incredible a guy his stature can run like that with the ball. We had in the first half one opportunity when he ran through the scum defence like nothing and he was stopped in the last second by Vidic. I've seen this running only at Usain Bolt (same stature).

While at barca he had practically nothing to do.. occasionally mop up a loose ball, so maybe that has had something to do with him taking time to get into the swing of things in the prem.
The thing is though he has the ability and the right ideas to be a big threat in every game. Once on the move he really really takes some stopping. I'd like to see him running at the defence at least 4 times in a game, every game. It would pay off and he would really change some games.. a bit like Gerrard of old.

City would do well to have someone run in behind him too when he does that, as more than often when he goes over the oppo dont get the ball, one or two get squashed under Yaya and the ball jumps free, just a thought!

He really goes from one end to the other. At times unplayable, at times shouldn't be on the pitch. Like Balotelli without the attitude haha.

I am so happy to be proved wrong!

Edit: Well, not wrong exactly. He's had some outstanding games for City, and his goals in the semi and in the final were vital, but he's had some poor games too. I think people need to stop digging up old threads.
