I think he's doing enough to keep in Silvas thoughts currently.
Certainly not a 100k a week player, but it looks like Silva is working on his fitness, mental toughness and trying to give the kid his confidence back.
Everyone who has invested so much in slating him the last year is never gonna give him his due. But at the end of the day he's a 23 year-old kid. Barca graduate, Spanish U21 international. He moved to a completely different football culture at a young age to a team in a mess with 3 incompetent managers over the whole season. Not entirely unsurprising he struggled last year.
Looks like a player that has been encouraged by the manager and wants to show how good he is. I thought he did well last night against good opposition and will get better as his confidence grows.... worst case scenario is his value increases in a sale.
He’s been really good in preseason, but Silva’s comments made it seem as though he wants a move. Happy to see him putting in a couple shifts even if it is to facilitate a move elsewhere.
