Some of the comments on here are laughable. Yes, he is totally overweight, but do not underestimate the impact that this guy can have in the remaining weeks of the season. Easily the most talented footballer on the pitch yesterday and makes things happen. He is a very assured player. Due to lack of fitness, he is not capable of playing in a four man midfield or for playing ninety minutes, but bring him on in an advanced position after 60 mins and he will potentially win you the game.

Scoring goals is not the only way of contributing to a win. IMO, our most assured passing of the game came at a time when he was on the pitch. He slows the game down and far less errors are made when he is part of the build up. He is a very intelligent footballer and no coincidence that others around him make fewer mistakes when he is on the pitch. When Ravel has an off day, thee is absolutely no creativity in our team. I stress, he should not be starting, but a great player to have coming on when opposition are tiring.

Agree with you Con but I am struggling to think of any games he has won us. Yes very creative on the ball and there have been some games it has cried out for him but for all the flicks there has so far no been an awful lot of end product.

Hoilett, Benayoun and TC were creative enough, yesterday.
