Middle distance runners and sprinters have totally different physiques. Have you seen how bulked up modern day sprinters are? And have you seen Traore sprint? I don't think his muscles really hinder him that much.Yes. We have no place for a bodybuilder with no end product, playing in a position he hasn't played in before. But we have for a homegrown young player that is already good, with lots of potential.
I guess Traore's muscles is a real hindrance when playing in a position that requires lots of running and long sprints up and down the field for 90 minutes. There aren't very many sprinters and middle distance runners that looks like Schwartzenegger, for a reason.
