Contrary to popular belief midfielders and especially the pivot get a lot less time on the ball in Spain. Teams in that league are much more adept at performing a well organised high press. That's why all these Spanish midfielders are so unbelievable press resistant when they come here. Flame...

I'm a Belgian who has followed him since time memorial. He hasn't lost any pace. If anything he has gained power and the ability to hold people off. Maybe he was more playfull during his Wolfsburg years. But more frustrating as well.

Another assist and a goal. He's not bad is he?

Calm down. You don't become the greatest side in world history (world? really?) for winning the premier league and breaking a few records in England.

Easily one of the best players on the pitch before his moment. Shame.

We where much much better than them and even utterly dominating with 10 men. One of those days...

LOL. There are no DM issues.

Even when he's having an off night, he 's still going to come up with the goods. As allways.

Just trying to help. :-)

You have them constantly. When we take the ball back within seconds, as is often the case, there is a much higher chance of scoring. It happended plenty of times in this game as well but we couldn't capitalize.

Acting like a whipped dog isn't cute. Have some self-respect.

A press is never good enough. Most goals come from turnovers in play regardless of possesion stats.

The previous seasons we had a phenomenal high press and he would look like a world beater under those circumstances. (As would Rodri in his previous position BTW.) He would be able to maximize his strenghts and compensate his (few) weaknesses at CB to a much greater extent. I don't quite...

Good post. Kevin is in front of Jesus and Foden if you take into account the starting position and lenght of his pressing runs. The man is a monster.

I agree. He's the best player to bring on when you want control. Still think he has a few top performances in him. They just won't be full 90 minutes performances. He could extend his career in a role where he doesn't have to do as much pressing because that's the thing that's killing his legs...

The assesement of his performance is way to harsch due to the result IMO. He might be fading a bit but Palace players where not having fun playing against him. For me, He's still a top player on the ball. But not for 90 minutes. The biggest problem IMO is that he's having trouble sustaining a...

Enzo Scifo? Not even close. Kevin is three times the player. Complete opposites in style too.

Neymar is incedibly easy to dislike but, for now, he is still better than Mbappe. When fit...

Confidence.

Slow down. LOL. He certainly has that potential though.
