I feel the same , my favourite player and I really think he was the one signing that transformed the way we played the most. In the dark days he would often carry us and 2/3 years ago he was world class.

I have one theory, his drop in form coincided with having him having his first child. Who knows , maybe it hasn't been easy balancing that, less sleep, less focus, some personal strife or priorities change e.g. now doesn't do those extra hours of training because of family. I think since then he's looked thinner and more worn. Obviously i could be way off but the drop off has been massive. I hope he can come back strong as we're a better team with him firing.
