He can do amazing flicks, farts & fannies.

The sort of thing that gets on highlight reels and forms many modern fans opinions of players. Mainly against poor opposition.
Unfortunately he is very lightweight, often takes more touches than are necessary and slowing everything up in the process, and against decent (Prem or good Champs) opposition he is ineffective/invisible 90% of the time.
When he's played this season he seems to have spent a lot of the rare time he's been on the ball being caught in possession, wanting way more time than you get at this level of football.
