If he played centre mid I think his shocking first touch would be even more of a problem Coming in from wide like a poor man's ljungberg is his best role for me He's obviously capable of more than he's shown to date so let's hope he can contribute

He is part of an Iceland team doing very well, there must be something about him.
At least he puts a shift in unlike many we have had in the past. Worth persevering with for this reason alone and may still improve enough. I can remember many who took a full season to come good, or even longer. It is still possible that it is about how the pressing game is played-or not in our case. If you have ever played in midfield you will know that you can run and run but never fit in with the players around you. Maybe we should inject him with Gareth Barry cells...I'm sure a Russian coach could help with this.

Lets hope he has a good World Cup then...we might get some money for him
