21 | Rayan Ait-Nouri - 2025/26

Loves to get forward and loves to find reasons not to run back. I like him, I think, but he’s a bit of a wet
 
Got caught out doing that step on the ball turn he likes to do, and if I know he does it, then it’s odds on that his opponent does, too. He also gave the ball away hitting a hopeful cross from the edge of their box. He’ll be on the naughty step for ‘transitions’.
 
Seen a rumour (on twitter so pinch of salt) he’s turned up to training in a protecting boot. Hopefully bullshit as not confirmed anywhere else.
 
So he played diminished against Brighton, I understand his performance better.
 
Our starting fullbacks seem set with O’Reilly and Kouchanov, so Ait-Nouri would be wasted on the bench. I hope Pep tries him on the right wing, where his pace, dribbling, first touch, and Mahrez-like skills could be more effective, and he can defend better than Bernardo and Savinho as well
