He`s a Midfielder!

Bryan Ruiz may have gotten only a cameo role at Wigan yesterday but his career in England is slowly getting going.

His spectacular first goal in English football augers well and Martin Jol, following that strike and ahead of the great victory at the DW Stadium yesterday, has praised his most expensive signing, commenting,

"You could say that his goal against Everton was a sign for everybody else, as I knew what he was capable of."

"He has an excellent quality of setting up goals, and can also score goals."

"It can take time to settle in I felt like I had t protect Bryan and he realises that."

"There was too much pressure on him. He was not an English player and he needs to know that it is not only about scoring and setting up goals."

"He is a midfielder, not a striker. In Holland, he scored more goals than any other midfield player."

"When he came here, people thought he was an out and out striker, but he is a midfield player."

"He can play out wide, or he can play as an offensive midfielder."

Okay Martin, we get the point - he`s a midfielder!
