What's a number of games out of the handful he has played. That Man Utd performance was nothing unusual from him, no - he has often been on the periphery of games...some games he has made a good impact when he is allowed a bit of time, some he has not. He is struggling to last the pace physically and mentioned how quick the game is in England, which is probably to be expected - flu or not. He is having a positive impact overall, but when he makes silly mistakes and ducks out of headers, we're going to talk about it in a match reaction thread, and when he has a fantastic first touch and lays it on a plate for others we're going to talk about it in a match reaction thread.
