the game lost logic a long time ago. all this is being used for is as a stick to beat him with, which is bizarre as we'll be celebrating his goals/assists over the coming months and years. in fact, the frustration about his contract his merely a disguise for the frustration much higher up in the club and if we are not careful, we'll start sounding like chav fans shit scared to criticise the real problem.
