VIDEO: Nani shows off his skill against Chelsea, plays great backheel flick to ... referee

Nani might be free of the Manchester United bench, but he's still the same frustrating player he always was with the Red Devils.

One of the most technically skilled wingers in the world, the wildly inconsistent Portuguese international was loaned by United to Sporting Lisbon during the transfer window, presumably with the hope that he could find some confidence before returning to Old Trafford and regaining the form that once made some view him as the heir-apparent to Cristiano Ronaldo.

How's that going? Allow this clip from Tuesday's Champions League match against Chelsea to shine some light on the situation.

Yeah, same old Nani.
