To be honest losing the ball a bit is to be expected the way he plays. He’s a dribbler and a risk taker, obviously don’t want him doing it in his own half too often but he’s a joy to watch and has added another dimension to our play lately.

Listen Joao,
You’ve been starting a lot lately do to some well deserved play, but if I see you miss another practical sitter, gonna knock you over the head. Every game you seem to have a great opportunity to get on the score sheet and you somehow contrive to miss. Get your finishing boots on and you’ll be heralded as one of the best attacking fullbacks in the world!

The kind of performance that should see Walker start in the CL.
He seems to have gotten a bit carried away with his own performances and maybe the praise being heaped on him. Needs to remember that Pep comment about keeping things simple.
If he keeps playing like this, I think it's only a matter of time before he drops an absolute clanger that costs us a goal or a game, the kind we saw last season at Wolves and it'd be nice to nip that in the bud before it happens.

Crying out to be hit with his left foot - always peeves me when a professional footballer uses the outside of the foot instead of just using their weaker foot.Listen Joao,

Looks great when it’s in the back of the net but infuriating when it goes wide.
Offers more than Walker at this stage - though Walker’s play has an important time and a place.

Brilliant up until the final ball/cross/shot, which is probably why he's a fullback and not a winger.

The thing is, he could have hit it with his right. He had enough goal to aim at to just shoot straight without trying to bend it in with the outside of the foot.
I remember people used to complain about de Bruyne giving the ball away too much, too.To be honest losing the ball a bit is to be expected the way he plays.
