A skilful right-sided midfielder, he combines hard work with undeniable skill. Primarily an attacking midfielder, he has recently begun scoring the crucial goals that many had regarded as the missing ingredient in his game. He recovered from a serious cruciate ligament injury in 1998, and was recommended to then Sheffield Wednesday FC coach Ron Atkinson by his international team-mate Roland Nilsson. Moved to Everton, after Sheffield's relegation.
