Did as much as he could today. Showed passion, ran his socks off, fought, kept possession well. Consistency.

yeah he wasnt helped much by the system, got caught out a couple of times

watchin him he has a fantastic burst but his recovery runs are pretty slow, i even think xhaka is faster long distance running back than the wee man with his tiny legs

He has a good reaction, but definitely not a good sprinter.

Needs to sort himself out

He keeps getting pushed around like a child. Emery needs to get him on roids.

First sesson, first Christmas schedule off the back of a world cup year and he is a very intense player, it's to be expected, need a few weeks off and he will be back.

He's been dreadful for a while. I think his drop is form is one of the main reasons we're struggling, along with the injuries of course. He just can't handle the physicality of the PL lately. Surprised more people aren't talking about this.

Played a lot of football over the lat few months so it isn't surprising. He's now had 2 week-long breaks with only a sub appearance to regenerate. Won't be surprised if he starts to pick up form again

Done nothing for a while, don't want to to be harsh in him but I want to see him stamp his authority on matches more in terms of dictating, the gattuso stuff is great but we need a bit more.

The defense to attack transition is awful, how can we saying that can't be improved with ramzil on the bench.
