I'd have him back. More talent than any central midfielders we've had permanently since he left. His reading of the game was outstanding, always knew where the ball would end up do didn't end up diving in for rash tackles & didn't have to run round like a mad man like Dawson or Perkins. Nearly always picked the right pass aswell
I think Danny Drinkwater & Jacob Butterfield would disagree with ya, as would the managers who've invested millions on them,wile Colace as been scraping around for contracts worth less then half what these two have been under
