The problem for me with Mich, Mich, Mich d'Avray was that he couldn't reach the heights of Muhren and Thijssen. Very unfair, I know.

He was a player who you always thought could and, perhaps, should do better. Alongside the occasional brilliance (he was very good in the air), he would often be in the defenders' pockets for large chunks of a game
