I guess you changed his stats since the last time, still I got him different in my notes, ATT and DEF almost inverted, less good shooting stats, better header and jump and green tech. He was a left half (defensive midfielder) in a 3-2-5, he was there alongside Vidal mainly to defend and hold the opponent's game. If playing at home he would adventure himself in attack more often (depending on the score) than when playing on the road where the 2 half were very conservative and focused on defending, so that makes them a bit hard to rate but I still see him as a kind of enforcer who was there to do the dirty job so the forward line could make the show.
To me he was nothing special, the common DMF of that era, I rate Vidal above him for example. I don't post my notes yet as I want to watch him again to be certain concerning some values.
All I can tell you for sure is that all the cards/sa don't suit his game at all (concerning super-sub I don't know though).
You can watch him here for example, he's the n°6 :
