82 | Rico Lewis - 2024/25

Can't defend and offers nothing in attack, exactly like Walker at the moment.
 
Thought he started the season really well. Last couple of games though have shown a lot of his weaknesses.
He’s just a really tidy player, neat and tidy. But that’s not always enough.
 
Others may disagree with this but for me he is not a player that should play every min of every game. Put a fit Kev in the positions he finds himself in and Haaland would be on about 20 goals already this year!

Superb squad player who has plenty of time to learn - then he will become even better.
 
WTF ? How many years Pep should waste on this kid ?

Too small to be a top level football player.
 
I honestly don’t understand the hype of some people here. What exactly is his strength? I am serious.
 
The criticism is good. He has gone from a young kid full of fight and energy and being solid to someone who plays regularly and therefore is held to higher standards.

If he is in space in the middle he has to start doing a bit more than short passes. In the final third he has to step up and make things happen and as a defender he has to do his job a lot better.

The caveat to some of the criticism is that when Stones played the hybrid role he passed and moved. Nothing complicated. It was about providing an overload in the middle and for others to have space. Rico is no different, he is in there to give space to others.

If people want to blame him for their first goal, watch how easily Kulusevski sells Gundo to get into that space. Sad to say but Gundo cannot play as a 6 with his lack of mobility.
