82 | Rico Lewis - 2023/24

[JewelZee]

I'm not quite on the same hype train as some of you......but he is a great kid and a cracking talent.

A future star as a midfielder. Forget RB. It was just a stepping stone and a way into the lineup. His future is as a middie...

That video shows how positive he was all game.

I've often thought he looked to be "safe" too much, but not last night almost every move was forward thinking, a really polished performance for me.

He needs to be handled carefully. We don't want to do what Arsenal are doing with Saka, playing him in just about every game. I was dubious/impatient at the time, but the club handled Phil’s development brilliantly. The same again with Rico, please.

Aged like milk. Well done

Aged like dogshit. Too bad for Gigant his ability to access players is miles BELOW bang average...

Some players look weird when running.

You know when Rico is about to sprint because his head goes down.

I thought you were going to say that it gets bigger.

Pep asking senior players how Rico acted when he wasn't playing last season and all the senior guys vouching for him almost guarantees he'll be a star

Where did he mention it?

With our squad that is just not going to happen
