Never seen him do anything constructive with the ball in his first team cameos. Seems to have garnered a lot of excitement by running a lot.
Yeah would like to see more of him to judge his technical ability but hasn't shown a great deal in his limited play so far.

Amorin has said he is prioritising effort as output from his players at the moment, so his workrate will surely have him above Eriksen and Casemiro now.
 
Peaked very early, up to 23/24 he was often keeping Scholes out of the team on merit, dropped off after that. PFA team of the year selection in 97/98 as well.

When you watch match highlights of games from that era it is a little surprising how good his passing range was, he could ping the switch to either wing, not to the level of Scholes/Beckham in terms of consistency but he had the range and also had a bit of that Carrick/Keane ability to whip balls between the lines to the strikers feet.
Nicky Butt's flaw was not being as good as Keane or Scholes. Every time he started you were a bit bummed Roy was suspended or that you would miss Scholes' passing and late runs into the box.

Deep down, we all knew you had to be a bloody good player to be the go-to rotation/backup for either and almost not miss a beat. It still bummed you though.

We had a similar situation with Jonny Evans and Rio-Vidic.
