His outing yesterday was pretty nice. Definitely looks like he can book a place for himself in the team next season.
His crossing looked more dangerous than Trippier's.
He was a willing runner down the line- seemed like he has been watching Kimmich videos the way he exchanged passes with his winger and then continued his runs into space all alone, receiving balls over the top.
All of this bodes very well.
One area he could improve is his strength. He got muscled off the ball quite a few times by Fuchs and the LCFC midfield. He'll also need to be more keen about giving away fouls in bad areas, the first LCFC goal coming off of a free kick given away from him.
Anyways, all in all, it was a very good outing from him. I was pleasantly surprised. Kudos to Poch for giving him the start.
