He is increasingly influential in the number 10  role but hasn’t been played there regularly enough to maintain high levels of consistency. When utilised on the wing, he’s less effective as he doesn’t see much of the ball itself and cannot influence the game very often, which is why it was a genuine surprise to see him play there on more than one occasion across all age-groups.

It could’ve been a failed experiment but he’ll be keen to increase his goal contribution statistics and also look to be more selfish when making darting runs forward from deep. Whenever he makes a probing through ball, there is never ruthless efficiency and he should have more confidence to strike from distance, as justified by his excellent finish against Southampton in September.
