Also to Jon Flannagan who's use of the ball and anticipation and reading the flight of the ball have proven to be absolutely exceptional so far this season. Johnson should f*ck right off, I'd have Flanno any day of the week instead.
And a big shout for Bentaleb from Spurs, the lad looks an absolute natural player, Vieira/Toure mould. Pure and utter class, if Spurs don't make the champions league, he should be the first name on our shopping list. Been meaning to mention him for a while but after seeing how good he was tonight thought it might be about time!
Not seen much of Bentaleb's passing Stu, so I can't really categorize him in the Vieira/Toure mould, however his ball at his feet is rather impressive, very tidy and rarely gives the ball away, only 19 too!
