    Really thought he would have ended up at Man Utd,still seemed to be quite happy where he was.

    Gifted right foot he had.

    He didn't get that many caps either for some reason. Also embarrassed Taibi and ended his Man Utd career.

    He was a bit like Larsson for us in that he would stay there when other clubs may be interested. The one time he was picked was the game at Lansdowne when holligans got it abandoned.

    I like the way he walks away at times as if he has just scored a tap in.:56:

    What a player he was, one of the most underrated ever in the EPL. Really loyal to Southhampton. Good pundit for ssn now aswell

    Outrageously gifted player.

    The fact he only gained eight * caps tells you all you need to know about the mentality of English international football.

    He never scored simple goals, only belters, great player and loyal to the club he truly loves, Southampton. He seems a good laugh, whenever i watch him on soccer saturday

    A complete maverick of a player. Brilliant to watch.

    A real great!
    Loved to watch him do his magic, never understood how he didn't became NT regular.

    I used him in Celtic in all my seasons in footy managers!
