I have nothing but praise for the boy. He is easily the best player in the world. His contribution as a goal threat is unbelievable. His stats are incredible. Strikes at goal, attempts on goal, raids into the penalty box, headers. It is all there. Absolutely astounding.

They say it was Cesc Fabregas who threw the pizza at me but, to this day, I have no idea who the culprit was.
