He's got a great first touch and turn but a lot of what he tried today didn't work. Would still prefer to see him in Doucoure's position (Alcaraz being 1st choice of course).
Such a frustrating player. He often gets himself in good positions but then is slow to make the pass or simply makes the wrong decision. I'm not sure if it's a lack of minutes or whether it's a general shortcoming in his game but it can be maddening.
He always seems keen to take a man on to progress the ball but as a midfielder, especially in the way we generally set up, he really needs to pick his moments better cause it leaves us in trouble in the wrong area.
….i know he’s naturally languid but I’d like him to play with a bit more tempo. He’s got gears but seems stuck in third. Lots going for him in terms of quality and physicality, he just needs a bit more application.
