Great again today. I’ll say it again - he has pace, aggression, passes with both feet and reads the game brilliantly.

What’s not to like? The odd brain fart moment? Fuck that. Happens to every player over the course of 90 minutes. Absolute bargain.
 
Maybe I'm being optimistic, but his passing reminds me of Stones in his first season. There's a ballsy nature to it.

I think with time, he'll cut out most of the little errors and be superb on that front.

Defensively, he's fine in my books. Not perfect, but I think being a centre back in our team can be very challenging at times.
 
I really don’t understand how he keeps getting game time. He’s a liability. Pep obviously sees something that I don’t, but it does baffle me. His passing is average, he panics when he’s pressed, he’s weak in the air and he’s not the quickest. Maybe I’m not seeing his true value but he really slows us down and in my opinion makes us weaker defensivel.
 
The main issue I have with him is that he is on the ball too often, and he isn't very good with it
 
Another poor half.
He breeds complacency with his undercut passes and poor decisions,
