I know that he's scored six goals, so he's obviously given license to get forward, but what does he create, because that's by far the hardest thing for any footballer, being creative. Stopping the opposition, reacting to other players is quite easy, especially with the game in front of you.
He created Derby’s goal down here by running thirty yards with the ball from halfway - we haven’t got players who make runs like that.
