Obviously very technically skilled - but no pace and doesn't score many (10 in 192 games for Sheff Wednesday).

Gerard Houllier compared him to Xavi and Iniesta when he was at Villa. Darren Fletcher also threw in Scholes as a comparison. But those comments were years ago.

If it was a 25 year old Barry Bannan, then yes (also a 25 year old Fernando Forestieri - who is also 30), but not the current version.
he's too young..maybe get into the under 26's
