Nah he aint a starter anymore but its always good...maybe not for him to have experince to call on when needed.He cant start every game now its not gana do him good fitness and tiredness wise and when he has been rested he does play a lot beter and have a postive impact Dont think it helped his case when he wasnt played and he wasnt missed so much..good from our view means we can make changes and not dependable on one player but not so good from his view!
