Colossal was how I'd describe Bryan Robson or Roy Keane, both absolute animals of players who could dominate and run a midfield, drag teams single handily through games on any given day regardless of how their team mates were playing.
Darren Fletcher was never colossal, in his prime he would still be miles off getting in the top teams in Europe and stood out because our midfield was so weak and has been getting weaker year after year.
He was a good player nothing more, now he is completely finished and can't even seem to do the basics in which he excelled at a few years ago, keeping the ball, closing people down etc.
Unfortunately the illness has taken its toll but he would be ideal to coach our youngsters in some capacity.
