Yes I think that is one of his main failings is he lacks a bit hunger/desire/toughness.
I’m not expecting him to go around kicking lumps out of people but to accept there is going to be a bit of physicality and also he needs to put himself about a bit when trying to win back the ball. It’s almost a ‘fake’ press he adopts rather than one with serious intentions of winning the ball back. I do think he is very talented but there is shades of Robinho about him with regards application, desire.
To be successful even the worlds best players have got to work, we saw this with PSGs all stars who were unable to win the champs lge with Mbappe, Neymar, Messi etc and now Real Madrid have taken a step back now Mbappe has signed for them. Talent alone is not enough.
