He’s a very good player, often great, sporadically world class. His biggest detriment to the team is his lack of consistency, his floors are too deep. I think his overall finishing is good even with challenges from range, I appreciate his free kicks, his athleticism is an obvious positive. Determination, strength, positives; will, positive. Defensive output, not that strong
When players have their weaknesses critiques, it’s often against their own positive attributes, their qualities. We’re not comparing him to some amateur, we’re saying his off the ball movement is shit compared to his finishing or some other attribute. We’re showing where he can improve based on what we already know about him.
Pedants get wrapped up overt emotive words they feel are overly harsh.
