Vive_La_Villa Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Probably best I’ve seen him in a city shirt. Only took a year and half but he actually looks the player they signed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Has Ake as a full back with Gundo and Rodri holding. Different set up, but there's more security for him and he has more freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuwabatake Sanjuro Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Pity he will never have his mysterious shin injuries again now there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being rotated because there are other excellent players for his position and having other options so he's not being kicked off the pitch for 90 minutes probably explain that.

I'm still disgusted about the time Dean Smith took him off in the dying minutes of a game and he threw a hissy fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i know, not the same, but it took him ages to adapt to the style of play, surroundings and to gain confidence. Now he is thriving for it. Coaching, drilling and all that, quality eventually comes through. Edited April 1, 2023 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom13 Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Superb today. Laughable that anyone actually wrote him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Grealish vs Alexander Arnold was always going be a mismatch. He tore him apart in the 7-2 as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But unfortunately Leon consistently displays poor decision making. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Does this mean he hasn’t actually been looking after himself all this time? He looks so much more fitter than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traore makes some odd decisions in his own third, but in the final third his decision making is very good. He knows when to release it. Hence his very good goal contribution per minute record wherever he's been. And he's not blessed with pace like Bailey either.

Tom13 Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 It's definitely confidence. I think he felt a bit out of place in this side for a while. Now, he's taking more responsibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
