yes I can recall ... that nightmarish night when he had to play along with Billy against Barcelona ... really great passes ... amazingly well placed through balls ... for Eto'o and co. that is!!!!!
He can't take the ball to the midfield for God's sake - well he can ... with dangerously inaccurate long balls - ... all he does is lessen down Nesta's job, that's all IMO !!!
When he plays next to Nesta he never makes those sorts of mistakes. Nesta just makes him feel more relaxed and assured and he knows that if he messes up Nesta is there to cover his @ss, and that's why he doesn't make mistakes, because there is no pressure. But when he played next to Billy he knew that most of the responsabilty was being put on him and the pressure might just have gotten to him, that's why he makes that bad passes
