I'm just saying that stat is of little relevance. He was one of those blamed for their WC qualification failure, so that could be brought up too. Only worried about his club performances considering the standard. Pleased to see him seemingly end the season in some form.
Can't really argue with the extension, but he needs to be phased out of the starting XI by this time next year. However, I don't get the sudden chance in offering longer contracts for over 30's.
