Well I thought he was a really really good player. If I was the manager at Athletico (and ten years ago I probably could have been, everybody else got a couple of weeks in the job) I would play him up front. No off the front man, linking up play, out wide or any of that old b0ll0cks, up front. If they do, and he gets the protection from the referees he is accustomed to in Spain then in my opinion he will score a mountain of goals. If he plays, he will score. When you make the kind of runs he does, and get yourself open as often as he does, and anticipate like he does you will always, always score goals.
Farewell little fella and thanks for the memories. I still remember when you made (I think) your debut at Bolton away and your clever movement and precise finish got us a much needed late equaliser which was incorrectly ruled out. I've a hunch you may be one we regret letting go.
