And I wouldn't have him back (and I mean for his playing ability). I wouldn't have the snake back if he paid us!Regardless of what I think of him as a person/character I just think he is very much past his best.

That's what I meant. I wonder if he's past his best or that the game has moved on a lot in the intervening years that a player of his style just doesn't cut it any more.
Wouldn’t bet on it HQ. He seemed to revel in kissing his Man Utd badge when scoring at VP. I suspect a fair few haven’t forgotten.

Hasn't really got a position to call his own any more.
Re Ashley Young I'm not sure whether this has already been discussed, but Ashley is the first English player to win Serie A since..............?A question posed (and answered) by Mr Shin whilst I was chatting to him on the phone yesterday
