He is a Rolls Royce of a player in many ways, but I still think he's in danger of becoming a luxury in a team that's been short on pace and power.
We can't really be thinking of playing him central so that means out on the left. Bring in a couple of forwards and all of a sudden you're benching players Chamberlain and Wilshere for him as well as Podolski if he starts.
But he's versatile and as far as you can tell, a fine human being.
