We look so much better when this lad's on the pitch. He needs to be given a bigger part in the final few games. He oozes class. Ball on a string. Purring.
I did raise the point about his lack of pace around the pitch before this game. I still think that's the case - he's doesn't appear to be very fast over the ground - but he more than makes up for it with the sheer skill factor. He seems to have so much time on the ball like no one else we have at the club. Quick feet matched by a quick brain. Class signing and will only get better.
Indeed. But then, lack of pace was what concerned everyone about Ramsey. This young man reminds me very much of him. But the way he turns, the ball glued to his boot, makes me think he can control things from the centre of the pitch, with Medel behind him. If we stay up, he could be central to the effort. When it comes to coming back up, ditto.
what a player this lad is.... has to play a bigger part in the run in, we were alot better when he came on... also zaha is getting a bit better seems to of stopped flapping his arms when he loses it and looks like he wants the ball back! we can do it believe!!!!
