It's the first time I've actually respected him this week. Him looking like he was pushing his team and doing everything he could and in one of the previous knockout games calling out one of the players that was hiding and telling them to take a penalty shot becuase he's good.
Before, he I viewed him as a selfish sulk. My lingerin memory was him celebrating on his own after van der Sar saved vs Anelka in the champs league shootout while the whole team ran up and dog piled. So between than and sulking when not given the ball on tap ins and sulking, I haven't been a huge fan of hoim despite his talent
