Looked that way in the Euros.

He can do so much more than that but he seems to have developed this habit of protecting his body so much that he becomes a total luxury out of possession. That's why I'm saying I'm not sure I'd want him back. If we had a defensive counter attack manager then every day all day but for a front foot system.... no so much.

Even in possession he struggles. His hold up play is very overrated. His slow feet can only control the ball if he drops to own half where there's heaps of space. His last season with us he may have been the player with most lost possessions in the entire EPL

I also wouldn't read too much into Emerson still getting minutes in pre season for us.

Mazraoui is pretty close to signing for Untied and he came off the bench against us today for Bayern.
