The old sunk cost fallacy I suppose, even for a club like City. If you've spent £100m on a player (and there's no way anyone will ever give you that back)...you have to use him.
I didn't see any development from him last season. Had less of the ball than he had at Villa as he was no longer the best player by a mile and no need for everything to go through him. Still light on actual output and continually runs up blind alleys.
Really pisses me off when England play and people demand he starts or we "build the team around him" (whatever that means). Why? He's frequently completely ineffectual.
By no means is he a rubbish player or anything but there are levels.
