    Exactly......he's only a stand-in winger and has stated publicly that his preferred position is in CM......where O'Neill played him at Villa.

    Fuck what he does playing out of position for his country and instead focus on what he can do at club level (which is all i'm really interested in).

    11 goals and 15 assists (all comps) from CM in his last season under O'Neill.

    That is why ...

    fwiw I agree he was poor.

    As were young and darling "roo"

    Our problems do not begin and end with Milner, if he was the problem then I would be happy.

    We lack the vision and the balls to change what's broken imo.

    No doubt he is a decent club player, but that's not what the point was is it?

    Including a screamer against us? If memory serves us correctly. Would walk into our side, either as a winger or centrally.
