His qualities lie very much off the ball rather than on it. "Does a job" but isn't better than Delap or Whelan and while he wasn't playing badly, our performances last season improved immeasurably (is that better than 'infinitely' para?) when he was dropped. Slightly better, but still hyperbole.

Always liked Deano. Works hard, never sulks, never shirks responsibility and, until Whelan's resurrection at the end of last season, he was our best "box-to-box" midfielder; 'triffic engine on him.
A lot of people on here rate Higgy as he's reliable and you know what you'll get from him when selected, this is what I'd apply to Whitehead. Steady but never spectacular.
He's never going to be a headline player but definitely a very good squad player to have, certainly until Palacios, Barton, Gibson and Messi sign on the dotted line.

He'll be starting most games now Palacios isn't coming.
