Great from the 10 or so games I've seen, and he's actually pretty quick, kept pace with Ronaldo + Marcelo easily in the famous win in October. Not Walker pace, but not slow by any means, and he's got endurance, he'll bomb up and down his flank for the full 90.
He's always been a very natural defender 1v1 and when it comes to cutting out balls into the box, this season I think his positioning has improved a lot, as has his decision making with when to go forwards and when to stay back.
He's definitely good enough. He's got a nice eye for a pass too, I think that could be really developed under Pep.
He also had Sane in his pocket in the friendly. Sane couldn't believe it and became petulant, lol.
