Was speaking to a Brighton fan today...

Was speaking to a Brighton regular about Craig Noone today. I spoke of how City need a winger who can beat defenders with a bit of ease and offer a good cross afterwards. Here's what he told me...
"Noone is good at beating defenders but frequently does little with the ball afterwards. He's exciting and scares defenses though which makes him valuable IMO. He can cross, but he just has a tendency to go too long is the main problem that I see. However once he fixes that I think he'll be a complete superstar, his potential is obvious."
He added that Noone sometimes plays like a game of pinball, with the ball often bouncing off the shins of the opposition.
In all honesty I'm not sure who I'd rather - Noone or Phillips. One thing's for sure, though; Phillips is in good goal-scoring form.
Whatever's best for the club!
