I’m very confident he can to be honest I think he’s shown internationally an ability to do it but as you allude to it does require others to be able to work with him.I don't think I've seen enough games with us specifically to say for certain. But his France exploits in winning shows how he can control games. He has an ability to inspire others with what he does on and off the pitch, so to that extend he can make other players more confident and in turn indirectly control the game.
Tempo wise, he definitely always wants the ball and is always looking for a forward pass, has quick feet and definitely able to play those quick intricate passes to ensure we can unlock a solid deep defense. It's why people say he is the key to unlocking those bottom table defense, cause naturally creative players can control the tempo of a game through their vision and passing, the key to that is of course if your teammates are on the same wavelength.
I think Rashford, Bruno and Martial are on that wavelength and I can see Sancho benefitting too.
I think by being that game changer he can quickly change the tempo and therefore control a game.
Agreed, but as vague a term it is I think he has all the skills to quickly change the pace of an attack or take the pressure off a team being pressed for example.There isn't a CM who controls and dictates game on his own. It all depends on the team and manager.
Team should be on same wave length to control games.
