He usually likes to bring the ball to a stand still face the defender and then try to beat him, which he usually does before crossing the ball into row Z and apologising,
To be fair he seem to make pretty good use of the ball these days he maybe being a bit less ambitious to reduce make sure there is some kind of end product.
Pace and the ability to cross the ball seem to be two opposing traits, the more you have of one the less you have of the other.
Ian Harte would be a prime example, dead slow deadly accurate. The other side of the coin being amazing pace coupled with amazing inaccuracy.
There are exceptions of course, Gareth Bale for example.
