In what way does he seem more a PL player?
They way he's seen as more attacking than Xavi and Alonso, almost deployed as a striker at both Barcelona and the Spanish national side. He was 'freed' at Arsenal to more Gerrard like almost.
He zips around almost anarchically (relative to his teammates) and is the reason for the unbalancing of Barcelona.
I can't be more specific. He just plays more like a Premier League player unlike Xavi or Busquets. Not saying they couldn't survive there of course.
