Wigan Athletic boss Roberto Martinez believes Victor Moses can fill the void left by Charles N'Zogbia's move to Aston Villa.
Former Crystal Palace star Moses was outstanding for the 1-1 draw with Norwich City on Saturday.
"You don't see many footballers like Victor," said Martinez. "He's a special talent.
"Players like him are becoming a bit of a luxury but he's not because he's got discipline in his game and tactically he's very aware.
"We haven't developed youngsters well enough in the past. I think we've been quite rigid in the way we coach our wingers. But Victor can play in three or four systems with great clarity.
"That, for me, is a tactical awareness that he's developed. That's down to his hard work and discipline. Wingers don't get that normally, and that's what pleases me.
"People will tell you how well he gets away from people, and the quality he has got in one-on-one situations. But he's also a real team player with a real team ethic and for me that's quite unique in such a young boy. If he does that, he's a real threat."
