Messi/Ronaldo levels? Never
But he’s the best midfielder England have and I don’t feel silly saying that anymore. I remember people laughing when we said he’s much better than Maddison and in a completely different league to Mount, but he is. Much more to his game, better physique and better with the ball. Always gets wrongfully credited with being a diver and going over too easily when he’s only been booked once for diving in his whole career (and it wasn’t even a dive). Gets fouled constantly because players can’t handle him. Teams put 2 men on him and still can’t get close to him.
He has the *potential* to be up there in the De Bruyne bracket of midfielders if he chooses his next club well this summer.
Will be gutted to see him go. The best Villa player in my lifetime. Special talent
