Coach's Overall Comments:
Technically, good. Excellent coming forward with the ball... Great overlap runs but crossing could be better... Very good in the air... Good passing, but at times, passes out of the back needed to be better... Tactically, good... Better decisions needed with the ball, play faster and see things quicker... At times, a bit too casual with the ball in his defensive end... Very strong in 1v1 defending and strong in tackles (need to work on moving his feet when defending and not just dive in)... Excellent under pressure... Great attitude, fitness and work rate... Great job in organizing and reading the game in the small and full sided games... Very good combine showing.
