Just to point out people saying he's given more freedom because he doesn't have as much defensive responsibility, he's still made more tackles, more interceptions and more clearances than Scowen and Freeman, just that now he's added even more to it. The guy is pure gold and would fit into most prem teams outside the top 6 once he starts getting goals regularly.

All midfielders have a defensive responsibility, I'm just saying that Luongo has a proper CDM alongside him now that takes a lot of weight off his shoulders therefore allowing him to go forward more knowing he is covered by someone who can actually break up attacks.Comment

Do you honestly believe that?Just to point out people saying he's given more freedom because he doesn't have as much defensive responsibility, he's still made more tackles, more interceptions and more clearances than Scowen and Freeman, just that now he's added even more to it. The guy is pure gold and would fit into most prem teams outside the top 6 once he starts getting goals regularly.
I like the guy, but to suggest that he's close to being able to play for a top 10 Premiership side is a bit far fetched for me Nas!Comment

Well yeah, I watch a lot of Premiership football mate. I don't see Luongo walking into any side troubling the top half of the Prem.
Do you have particular players in mind that you feel he's better than in the top 10?Comment

West Brom and Bournemouth immediately pop into mind from last season's top ten as teams where he could just drop in and be an immediate first team player."What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value.
