Love his attitude to football and playing strong teams in all the competitions. Sadly a lot of players care solely about money later in their careers rather than balancing that with the love of football which was why being a professional was a dream in the first place https://t.co/yfMUDpy49c

Well said. I absolutely hate how patronising the media are when it comes to the lower leagues.
