82 | Rico Lewis - 2024/25

Rico at back 4 makes our defense weaker.
We won the treble playing 4 central defenders with one of them inverting.

So either we have wing backs who can provide an assist or two or we play with strong 4 behind.

If not we are going to lose a lot of games this season no matter how good we play. Defense makes our team winning.

Firstly, we don't have 4 fit out and out defenders, so we can't "play with strong 4 behind".

Seconly, putting the fucking ball in the net at the other end "makes our team winning".

Fans will start turning on him if he doesn't come out of the team soon, which will be sad and unnecessary.

I'm not sure match going fans will actually turn on him, but he's playing far too many games for one so young.

The fact he'll probably play in Greece won't help at all ... he needs a break.
 
Rico is a work horse just like Bernie. He’s not a defender or creative midfielder.

He’s been asked to do too much & has old players like Gundy & Kova next to him.

Rico is doing well & never stops running for us.
 
He clearly a talented footballer and intelligent on the pitch but I think his biggest issue is that he doesn't have a clear best position. Think he may well end up being a bit of a Phil neville.

Strange one with him as nobody knows what his best position actually is, the next manager coming in after Pep may not want to play him here there and everywhere.

Bernardo is so much more than a work horse. He is 10x the player of Lewis. Rico isn’t neither a defender nor a midfielder. Tbh I don’t really see the fuss about him.

The zinchenko comparassion I saw someone mention earlier in the thread seems more accurate than Bernardo
