His impact is increasing every game. What a player he could become

Could he play as a wide attacker? If he played as an out and out winger he could perhaps contribute more than Sterling or Mahrez by getting into the box fast and crossing from deep? I'd love to see it and see if he also got into the right positions to score where the other 2 seem to falter so often.
(Same for Torres though - wish he played more often)

I think the reason he’s able to get into the positions he does is because he is (nominally) playing at fullback. If he started as a winger he’d have a man on him all the time. In his current role he must be a bloody nightmare to try and mark

Technically he's one of the best players in the league.

Goes past players with ease, that’s not an easy attribute to have. If he works on is his end product, we will have the best full back in Europe.Technically he's one of the best players in the league.
Don't know if it's been said before but a possible replacement for Fernandinho in midfield? Reads the game well, surprisingly likes a crunching tackle, passes well, has fantastic stamina and likes a shot. Fairly useful in the airto boot. Has really settled and shone so far this season. I have to hold my hands up and say I thought we had bought a dud initially. Shows I know nothing about football amd should stick to just watching. Makings of an absolute star.

I think that he could play in midfield in a pinch like he did against Palace as a sub, but I think it would be either more of a 2 man midfield or him higher up to help in attack. I don't think he can read the game as a single pivot like Rodri or Dinho right now.Don't know if it's been said before but a possible replacement for Fernandinho in midfield?

Yeah his qualities aren't really suited there, it would be like playing Foden as a DM, just a waste of what they can do further up the pitch.I think that he could play in midfield in a pinch like he did against Palace as a sub, but I think it would be either more of a 2 man midfield or him higher up to help in attack.
