The only positive from that first half. If the players ahead of him played with the same energy we might be able to muster something resembling a meaningful attack.
 
Those, and a few others, from today were fine plays

Still more of an overpaid utility player than an actual high upside prospect for me, but probably deserves his fair shot in a better functioning team...

..Preferably on a loan.

the second clip was class, he needs to be doing that more often. thats top class midfield play.

all clips display why he is a CM, passing, dribbling and tackling...everything you need to be a good midfielder.

hell get more confident with age, the ability is there.

Since he's joined, he's been played all over the pitch and in stops and starts because of our abysmal recruitment and the managers. Our midfield is such a mess and isn't giving him the opportunity to develop with more settled and experienced players around him.
 
He cannot spot a diagonal pass, or doesn't fancy himself converting one even under the most favourable circumstances. I don't know which is worse.

Dortmund were playing with wingbacks instead of actual fullbacks to begin with; and their left wingback got sent off. Those diagonal passes to the right should've been the first option to seek in situations like these.

This has nothing to do with Frank either; as managers like him who prefer more direct football would welcome such no-risk-nonzero-reward passes.

Discouraging to say the least.
