    In 87 games he has 25 goals and 16 assists,

    If he was a superstar run the game every game type player he'd be somewhere else than with us. He is a talent no doubt but if course he has areas to improve in

    Never actually realised how poor his goal return was of late. Only scored 4 goals since mid September.

    About half of his appearances this season are around the 30 minute mark, so that’ll naturally have an effect on his goal tally.

    He was terrible yesterday when he came on. Kept losing the ball and couldn't control it to save his life.

    Was gonna post something similar last night but thought better to not bring a negative vibe straight after a good win lol

    Thought he was awful. I actually wanted him subbed back off for Haksabanovic :giggle1:

    He was more effective last season as he had that bit more space. He thrived on a ball in behind and being first to it.

    Given how limited/stretched we were as a squad first half of last season teams thought they could be more open. This season is completely park the bus from the start.

    For me, he's a much better player this season, just the opportunities are less/compacted and that suits him less.

    Really really does my * in sometimes..

    I know young wingers will be up and down, that's natural but the amount of times he takes the wrong option or looks quite amateurish in his touch or crossing is mental..

    The pitch made a big difference there, there was a cross he had to loft the the keeper caught that would have been a nailed on goal along the ground but it would not have been a reliable play due to the poor field conditions.

    I'd say he was probably trying to hard today and that led to some poorer choices, if he had the consistency he'd be a 50milion player away at one of the big money clubs though

    Haksabanovic needs to be above him in the pecking order now. Although like others have said the pitch didn't help.

    Not his day today, he will be inconsistent, we have to accept that, but the good far outweighs the bad, his consistency will improve over time.

    The one where he was back to goal, on his left foot and ballooned it over after taking it off Mooy who was running on to it perfectly to lace....was the most annoying..

    It is frustrating as he get's into good positions, if he had consistency and final product every time, he's probably be plying his trade in the EPL right now.

    He’s been abysmal the last two games when he’s came on.

    Maeda and Jota are light years ahead of him at the moment.

    Has had 1 of them every game recently. Keeps wanting to cutting and onto his left foot and blazing it well wide. However told him he's got a left foot needs a boot in the plums
