Personally, as good a laner as he is, and he does scale decently late game too, and can kick some serious butt mid-game if fed, I think one of the main problems with him as a team's mid is that he is not a particularly good ganker, nor is he very mobile. It really helps a team to have a mid who can just zip down to other lanes unpredictably and gank or turn a gank around, etc...

The best position for him right now, in my opinion, would be as a top laner, he also counters a lot of popular top laners... although he can make a pretty decent support too. Very defensive while also at the same time having a great ability to harass and help secure kills from decent range.
