One thing that strikes me is just how quick he is over 5-10 yards, particularly when we’ve lost possession upfield or the ball is loose. He’s also got quick feet when getting a shot away.
Don’t think Southgate can afford a Van Gogh.Aesthetic movement, balance like a big cat, changes direction and accelerates at the same time. Come on Southgate do it.

Besides, he’s more a Rothko man.
I would say a goal threat only as an individual. Merlin provides a bigger goal threat in other ways imo.Always wants the ball. Sharp as fuck. I'd pick him before David now. He is 5 times bigger goal threat.

Obviously a very talented lad, but he will need many years to develop the nouse Merlin has
