Definitely. There were so many games you’d watch him terrorising full-backs to within an inch of their lives, whipping in ridiculous crosses and scoring absolute pingers and you’d think, “how are you only playing at this level?”. Then there were lots of other games when he just...wasn’t there, and you’d think “do you even want to play at this level?”. The good games seemed to become more sporadic the longer he was with us. Up to the point towards the end of that last season a lot of fans seemed to lose patience/faith in him. I always loved him and like you say, that was the perfect way for him to bow out (and frustrate folk again just as he was leaving haha).
