Best 6 ?

He tears about like a headless chicken most of the time, lacks positional awareness and discipline, is a reckless tackler and his passing is ordinary. He’s not great receiving the ball under pressure with his back to the opposition, and he has a nasty habit of overplaying and getting caught in possession- the goal against Wolves one of many examples of this.

I don’t see how anyone can watch his oeuvre so far and see 6.

As far as 10 goes, I don’t think I’ve seen him play a through ball or smart pass all season. He’s got a smaller xa90 (0.05) than Kinsky. Not seeing how anyone is seeing “10”.

His biggest strength seems to ba getting the ball facing the opposition and carrying it 10-20 yards and laying it off.

He’s just a kid so hopefully he can develop his game, but he certainly lacks the fundamental skill set to be a 6. And he lacks the vision/passing to be a 10.

He absolutely does not lack the “fundamental skill set” to be a 6. To say that of a 19 year old is just silly.

He’s right. Attack his arguments. He was bang on about Kulu too, people went fucking crazy over him.

Talented lad. Our fans have clung on to him this season, understandably due to the total lack of talent the rest of them have shown.

Nah- you’re wrong. Don’t make the same fundamental mistake as bus boy to confuse poor form under this manager with poor quality generally.

Kulusevski was crap for a season under Conte too. He’s a hot and cold player with a very limited skill-set. I rate him more than BC but he’s nothing more than decent.

I won’t take the you’re wrong bit personally, it gets said to me a lot on here and it only very rarely ends up being true.

Bergvall is a good talent but in most teams would be on the bench. I don’t see an inventive or expansive passer.
 
He isn't that far off at 19 years old (!) when you see elite midfielders this week in the CL from Barca and PSG. Within a couple of seasons he will be up there with the best, massive potential.

Speaking to Sport Bladet, the midfielder said, "It felt better in the stomach. They are both incredible clubs. It was a very difficult choice, it was 50-50 for a very long time, but it felt like the next step for me was Tottenham. It was not very easy to say no to Barcelona, it took a very long time to decide. It was a tough decision."

You think he’d get in barcas midfield? Did you copy and paste that with a straight face ?
 
He's a good kid and deserves better than he's getting right now. Never been a fan of rushing player development. It's throwing them to the sharks and long-term risk of injury and legs going sooner is a thing too. Imagine how Kane would be today if we hadn't run him into the ground for seasons and seasons.

I disagree. Hes a decent dribbler, but his tactical side of the game is very poor. He has so much to learn about positioning, tracking his man, passing lanes, blocking etc. He has decent raw attributes albeit not a particularly elite passing range.

a year our on loan at a low end seria a club would help him.. cos ATM he absolutely does lack the technical ability to sit and be the holding middie.. he's one footed, not quick footed enough takes an age to turn,gets disposed to easily and makes poor passing and overall decisions under pressure . ATM he'd be a walking disaster as our no 6..could well damage him for ever..imo the costly mistakes he keeps making sort of point that he's almost at that point.. frankly if I were the manager i'de be pushed to put my trust in him..
