"He played a good game in the first half too. You can play a game like this with a footballing 6 if you want. If we talk about Macca – is he better as an 8 or a 6?
"I prefer him in eight as well but we are not playing in dreamland.
“We had a problem in the position tonight and in the end, it worked out. The impact he can have is massive from everywhere.”
