I think he did play well last year but so did Perch.................
By all accounts Perch was very average last season other than when we played them and he bossed Jonas.
M'Bami was a good player at Marseille for the most part, can't say I've seen him recently.
Of course they have the stereotypical Nigerian forward Kalu Uche. Other than that there isn't much quality.
I just laugh at people claiming last year that Cronaldo was more "complete" because he can score freekicks and heads the ball better. Football is more than just the finishing, man.
You could probably have argued that if Messi wasn't scoring goals (football is about goals at the end of the day) but Messi is banging them in anyway. Mental.
