I hate to put a downer on the performance. But I don't think we will ever see Rico play again after his Cameo this evening. Just being honest.

Quoting myself from 1st September. But hey ho. Sometimes it is nice to be wrong :)

He might become our best fullback ever, high bar set by Zaba.

Ive never seen an a fullback this complete in quality at such a young age.

Kyle Walker mate, come on.

 

[Hart of the Matter]

The boy done good.

 

[domalino]

He's the promised one, coming of age just in time that Trent Alexander-Arnold won't get a game for England when Walker finally retires.

Kyle Walker mate, come on.

I agree on paper, Walker is a defensive wall.

Zaba is just that little bit more special for me.

With the frightening prospect of Lewis somehow eclipsing both.

And I agree with what you said above, next Euros even, Lewis will be Englands starting RB.

As an inverted fullback he does the role very very well, but as an out and out fullback he will struggle against top wingers. I think at the end of the day he just suits the way Pep wants his fullbacks to play, but at any other top club he could struggle to hit the heights.
He’s not not better than Trent or James as a traditional fullback

He’s not not better than Trent or James as a traditional fullback

He might not be as good but he’s also 5/6 years younger

[Kinkladze's crazy skills]

Totally rose to the occasion tonight... Pressed well... Passed well... Transitioned well into midfield while finding spaces for his inverted full back role... Faultless, his best game so far.

I'm not one for hyping kids too much but he's going to be a great player for us, he's already proving very useful at such a young age, Pep loves him and it's easy to see why.
