Watched most of the second half since Lopes wasn't starting didn't bother to watch the 1st.
Lopes is pretty much there only creative Midfielder. Marvin is crap and most of the Lille fans on their forums question his selection.
Positives from this game:
*Made a through ball to Gueye where he, looked left and pass to the right, gave Gueye a simple 1-v-1 with the GK which he failed to convert.
*FK from 10 yards outside the box, ball was place into a dangerous spot. I 1st I thought it was a shot but replay shows that Kjaer(?) could have tap it in but missed it by a feet or two.
*Vision is excellent and has the passing tool to make the pass.
*Should get loaned to a better club next season.
Negative, not just from this game:
*Not sure what he defensive responsibilities are, I know he is a no10 so not much is expected/demanded, but he rarely tracks back when they lose the ball. Need to improve on that along with his press without fouling a player.
*Notice too often that he would just sit between the CB/DM.
*Needs to drop deep to receives/demand the ball since none of the Lille players (outside of Origi) can make a decent pass let allow a create a chance for him.
*Needs to bulk/get stronger, didn't see it in this game much but too often he would get push off the ball or goes to ground too easily.
