That’s because he’s not a winger. He’s a 10 and we have far too many of them and not enough wingers.He put a good cross in when he first came on and had a pop shot from 30 yards in the 90th minute, what else?
Drives me insane when he’s on the pitch as a winger but constantly drifts into an overcrowded middle. Eventually RDZ put Buononatte and Adingra out wide to stop it tonight.
I genuinely cannot get my head round how this kid was meant to be one of the best in the world not long ago. He’s shown no elite level attributes.
A front four of Adingra (or March), Fati, Mitoma, Joao Pedro would beat almost any team we encounter. But injury and failure to strengthen mean we’re constantly playing square pegs in round holes.
