He does play too many overweight long passes I agree - a problem accentuated by our lack of pace up front although in his defence I would also say other midfielders weren't making themselves available for shorter passes quickly enough - but I thought he made a lot of good challenges, was looking to get on the ball and when he did keep the passes shorter, was effective.
