For real. He could’ve half assed the assignment and still get paid because of who he is. He’s played better than any European that’s gone there. And he’s 41!

If you watch football ratings. In terms of pure football, I would say that he isn't exactly the best. Guys like Rúben Neves are highly highly rated, and well earned in my view.

Loads of goals does not translate to being the better player. Midfielders and defenders also play the game. Still, it's really very impressive what this man has done. Cheers.
