I think he’s more valuable to a bottom half club than top half
All about opinions isn’t it.I watched the wolves game at the weekend and he had clearly improved. He was fun to watch, his final balls were much better he did seem to drift out of the game in the last 30 minutes or so.
Also he had bulked up and looks massive.
He doesn't defend as much now, as Nuno's not there making him defend, so he plays better when he does get the ball, as he has more energy, which is massively important to his game.He looked much better at the weekend than he did for us, which isn't surprising he is playing with better players and has continued to develop.
What I would say is he still doesn't defend, in fact whee he is not on the ball even when wolves had the ball he was very static.
He was good for us, but he is better now.
