Technically gifted and with an eye for a pass, the midfielder ha been one of Cardiff's most impressive performers this season. The former England Under-21 midfielder is the Bluebirds' joint-top goalscorer this term - with four goals - including a stunning 20-yard effort at Fulham in September which sealed the team's first top-division away win since 1961.
