He's back and better than ever.

I never doubted him for one minute. And to think some wanted/still want to get rid.

Tut tut

Agree 100%, potential always there just needed the right manager to get the best out of him.

A few of us will be feeling right smarmy bastards after reading that.

He's still a young kid. Was a raging certainty he'd have 'a bad patch' and he may yet have another. But he's a beast of a footballer and has what it takes to become a great of the game.

great all round display last night - couple of great surges forward and immese defensively - his near post block on defoe towards the end was top notch

deserves credit and if he continues applying himself has potential to become even better - has to be recalled to the full england squad in my opinion

He's coming back to form he was he burst onto the scene and is showing intent to get forward and support the attack which is very promising. I think he will be an amazing full back when he's 26/27 and in his prime years
