I think he looks very sharp in the first half which would suggest he's at least close to match fit. Maybe this will improve over the next month, but I don't think he's going to be a 90 minute player. He's 30 and his overall fitness and in particular his stamina seems to be waning. Having said that he's probably our most gifted, and has the potential to be, our most effective player. I say we persevere.
