Messi's the player he is cos he's allowed to express himself, and gets the free role

Too many clubs in the prem let a youngster out green, they start dancing around the field taking everyone on with frightening speed

Then it's coached out of them, they are then moulded into something else

Micah Richards, Walcott, Lennon, Wright Phillips. We all remember them being devasting on the wing, and we all remember how they just stop performing

Milner I quite liked, cos he never was the quickest, so his development has been had elsewhere. Hence Leeds are known for having good academy youngsters

There is something chronically wrong accross the board though. It's almost why ex players make good managers. They maybe don't want how it was done to them, to happen to their teams in management

It's possible that's why people like Lee Clark get such a quick reaction out of squads when taking on their first job
