One of the greatest players I've ever had the privilege to see. In a day and age where prices are bandied around like confetti I honestly don't think you could put a price on what his capabilities were. Now, you get one type of midfielder who sits on one position, passes it 10 yards max and it worth £100m. Then you get another type of midfielder who adds average attacking thrust. Another £100m Then, you have captains who don't open their fucking mouths for 90 minutes, called" leaders ". Another £100m He was a team's best defender, best holding midfielder, best leader, best attacking midfielder and most important match winner. Priceless. Truly priceless.
