Can anyone give me a balanced view - did he play really well apart from the goal? What kind of things did he do well?
His positional sense is excellent now he’s being played in a clearly defined position.
Here’s my take on his last two games:
When we’re in position he’s in space ready to receive, when we’re defending he busts a gut to get where he needs to go.
He seems to win possession back with a lot of interceptions, little nick tackles.
He plays forward.
He puts the ball in the box with decent quality (though not much to aim at)
He takes dangerous set pieces normally on
Tarkowski or Keane’s heads
He’s started to shoot and strikes a ball very nicely
