Not been on here in a few days, so I’m a bit late in saying this, but what a performance from this guy on Saturday.
Like a few on here, I’ve always wondered why he’s not been played consistently as a wide player. That’s where he played in Brazil and it suits his attributes perfectly.
Having a right footed player on the right wing was a breath of fresh air. His crossing ability is something that, until now, I hadn’t seen picked out. He’s also strong - I think we’ve been too used to seeing wide players getting pushed off the ball in recent seasons.
This guy is still something special, and if we play him consistently on the wing, I think he’ll have a breakthrough season
