Yeah I think this is being somewhat missed in the discussion around him. I don’t think there’s any guarantee he plays RW for us predominantly, I think part of the reason he failed to gel at Juve was they played him too wide.

He can play where Moura is playing, which is more inside forward than winger. He can partner Kane in a 3-5-2, serving as a bit of a creative player, he says his best position is as a trequarista. Or I could see him playing as the forward most midfielder in a midfield three.

He’ll be the most versatile player in the squad, a chess piece we haven’t had.

They didnt choose La Liga, he must have because he wanted to go back to Spain. Despite his denials, that Spanish article claiming he was unsettled in England and homesick must have had more than a grain of truth in it.

He should have stayed here even if it meant he trained with the squad and was mostly on the bench picking up minutes here and there. Working with Conte, training with the rest of the squad, acclimatising to the UK, all would have proved more worthwhile long term than going back to Spain barely 6 months after arriving here.

Consistent game time is much more important for a young players development than picking up mins here and there.
