I didn't think he was that bad. Not sure what he's like off the pitch, but he comes across as a bit of a tw*t on twitter.
Great example of a player who does enough each year to land himself a one year deal at a decent League One club the following season. Not especially good, but dare I say decent enough to look good in a winning team. Some players can make a 15 year career out of short-term bursts of decent perfomances followed by mediocrity.
