Landon Donovan

And he does that.

That's right.

If you're sort of trying to put this into context, we've had our battles with Ghana, haven't we, over the years in World Cups.

And when you are close enough to that action, you do realize that

There are certain stars, a couple of them I can remember and some of them drawn a blank, but have used the World Cup to sort of catapult their names, you know, into, and he's already in the Premier League, but, you know, sort of into the forefront.

Like, oh, I wasn't really, I didn't know much about him.

Now people know about him because of the Premier League, but can he do it on the biggest stage wearing that shirt?

look i agree with what you're saying he he was able to do it at bournemouth and then has immediately hit the ground running at at city like like literally he's taken to that he's taken to playing for city which i didn't know i thought maybe that might take a little bit of time yeah i did um but the other part and i saw this yesterday and i said it on air not that he didn't enjoy playing his football because i'm guessing he did he was out the week in week out he didn't

He's not a big smile guy.

He's not a big like, you know.

But yesterday he celebrated the goal with this new celebration and he's smiling.

And I'm just thinking he's sort of enjoying himself, you know.

And maybe it's a realization that he can play at that level.

And I don't know.

I can tell you what it is.

Yeah, I mean, I sort of... We talked about it maybe with the Dutch squad.

I think we said it about Mickey van de Ven when we talked about defenders.

Again, he is another sort of...

product of his own success and the success of his national team.

And, you know, can he get, can he force himself onto the pitch?
