I am in Aus visiting my sister and went along to the World Cup qualifier to watch the Ossies VS Uruguay last night.
Am happy to say that Kewell absolutely starred. Havent seen him play like this since his early Leeds days. I thought he was losing his pace and skill since he moved to us, but it was all there on show last night. Confirming that its his head thats been the problem in the red shirt. He hasnt lost his talents.
He was being marked by our target over the summer Lugano. Gee he is class. Quick, reads the game, difficult to beat, organised. Any world class defender playing on Kewell that night would have been creamed. If Kewell plays like that for us, he'd make mince meat out of even the best premiership defenders like Terry and King.
It was one of the best battles I've seen for a while between a class defender and a talented player on his game.
I just want this Lugano kid to sign for us in January. He is top shelf.
